A different binding does not a new manifestation (aka instance) make,
so both ISBNs should be associated with a single instance.

We don't want to get into trying to disguish between publisher
binding and library rebinding.  The content is unchanged.

Let's not confuse manifestations with items.

If contrary to bibliographic logic two records are created. the LCCN
should be associated with both.
