Ahhh, I had missed that. Earlier, that phrase was meant to indicate that the 
errata reviewers assumed the fix *would* be included; I'm glad to see that 
expectation has been toned down.

I stand by my statement that the errata process is poorly defined and not all 
that well executed, but I fully admit that there is little will to fix it in 
the near future.

Already done: see RFC 6840. DNSOP has been discussing the topic that caused 
this errata in another thread, and there are various arguments about whether 
there is any real value for changing the MUST to a SHOULD given the wording in 
other standards-track RFCs.
