I do not recall OUP insisting on this, but I do believe that Dominik
and I were in complete agreement with Don as regards hyphenation files :
once created, the file ("UKHYPHEN.TEX", at the time, I think) must
remain immutable, otherwise legacy documents cannot be re-processed
in the future to produce, and it was for this reason that the file
contained imperatives to the effect that, if the contents were changed
for any reason, it must NOT be redistributed with the same or similar
name.  Dominik may well wish to contribute to this thread.
