Not only do we not "fix" them, it's not even our job to decide that they 
are "bugs."  We don't pretend to know more about Comorian, or any other 
language, than the experts who maintain the ISO standard.  IIRC, our 
deviation from external standards is limited to the following:

1.  We don't add a new subtag corresponding to a new code element that 
would duplicate or conflict with other subtags.

2.  We deprecate, but do not delete, an existing subtag corresponding to 
a deleted or withdrawn code element.
