[Resend to hopefully pass recipient limit filter]

Hi Tom,

I would be interested to hear from the original authors.

My impression is that this is a technically reasonable change, but I don't 
think that an erratum can create a new revision of a YANG module.

If this erratum was processed as "Hold for document update" then would that be 
sufficient to do the right thing in the MPLS YANG module?

Regards,
Rob
