I strongly object to the introduction of YET ANOTHER module revision for
the YANG library,
just to fix something that has no impact on any real tools.  Only the first
revision-stmt actually
matters, and that is correct in this case.

This bug should be handled with a simple Errata correcting the revision
history.
The data string is clearly wrong and changing it has no impact at all on
modules that import ietf-yang-library.
