I simply used the existing variable name from docs/new-names.txt:

   |-------------------------+------------------------------+---------------|
   | battery.mfr.date        | Battery manufacturing date   | 2005/04/02    |
   |                         | (opaque string)              |               |
   |-------------------------+------------------------------+---------------|

Perhaps it makes sense to change it, but then probably in all drivers
at the same time. -- Peter
