  There is a minimal regression potential here; Vim simply reads a
  statically-set Perl array to determine if the release in the changelog
  and sources.list is supported or not. Any regression would present
  itself in external tooling that detects text highlighting, which is not
  a case I think we support in Ubuntu.
  
  A simple way to test this update is to download a package from the
  Oracular archive, and open the changelog with Vim. Instead of the
  changelog release (e.g. "oracular") showing as red, it should show as
  blue. I would also suggest editing sources.list, to ensure e.g. Kinetic
  shows as EOL.
