Interesting indeed, I still use my RNS-D so I'll wait with bated breath!
(It's 5 days before my bus pass becomes 10!)
Though given that RNS-Ds were working fine 19 years ago, as the previous rollover approached, I very much doubt anything will happen. 
Reminds me vaguely of New Years Eve 1999 when I went to a massive party and was the only one among my friends not drinking, except a small glass of champers at midnight, as I was the Global IT Infrastructure manager for a global corporation at the time. 
Though as our NZ, Aussie, Asian, Middle Eastern through to European systems had already moved to 2000 without a problem I wasn't too worried.
