Before, Remind would silently truncate long identifier names to 16 characters.
Now it warns about that truncation.

The issue is that the SATISFY clause can never be, well, satisfied.
Remind now issues a warning if that's the case. A better way to write
these lines is:
> REM Sun Apr 1 ++2 UNTIL 2006-12-31 MSG Daylight Savings Time - %"DST
starts%" %b%
> REM Sun [_last(Oct)] UNTIL 2006-12-31 MSG Daylight Savings Time - %"DST over%"%
