[Ltru] Disambiguating specific and generic names



I've just learned, from reading the ISO 639-3 FDIS text (Section 4.3), that when a macrolanguage and an individual encompassed language have the same name -- for example, Konkani "kok" and Konkani ""knn" -- they will be suffixed with the strings "(macrolanguage)" and "(individual language)" respectively, not "(macrolanguage)" and BLANK as previously reported.

I'll correct the proposed RFC 4646bis Registry to reflect this, and will submit draft-4645bis-01 to internet-drafts shortly.
