I suggest you also include the following that Stan reminded me about:

In 09-007r3 13.7.111 [370:26] please change
6 Example. MERGE BITS (13, 18, 22) has the value 20.
to

Also, 09-007r3 13.7.150 [388:25] please change
7 Example. SHIFTA (IBSET (0, BIT SIZE (0)), 2) is equal to SHIFTL (7, BIT SIZE 
(0) - 3).

Definitely not if there is any technical effect, unless we want to go back to CD 
stage.  Even for "bug fixes", our chances of getting away with saying the FCD 
ballot passed and going to DIS are reduced if we start changing anything not 
mentioned in a country comment.  Anything else would have to be very purely 
editorial (like mispelings and missing or extraneous, commas).
