I'm not fond of the idea of changing the document either.

"Frozen" is probably not the right thing. Perhaps just the simple:

--
Registrations completed after date yyyy-mm-dd MUST be incorporated into this registry by IANA. This includes some registrations completed under RFC 4646 prior to the adoption of this document.
--

Anyway, it shouldn't be very hard. If we don't make the change, the LSR could just send an email to IANA once the new registry is in place with a reminder to re-incorporate the changes (and listing which ones they are). Ad hoc processes are sometimes the best way to handle minor issues.
