  to match what's in Shanks & Pottenger.

The following changes should not affect externally visible behavior.

* Update Brazil comments to mention Decree 6,212 (2007-09-26).

* Make comments a bit more concise for Brazil and Mauritius.

  separate.

  same as the US.

* Add comments about time in China from 1949 to 1980.
