How about this?:

s-(SIL code):(country code):(dialect code):(orthography code):(century)

I don't know what a dialect or orthography code looks like, so I'll make 
something up. Examples:

s-src:at:burgenland:latin:19
s-gko::ionic:greek:-4
s-gko::mycenean:linear-b:-13
s-gln:es::pt:18
s-ydd:pl:mid:yivo:19
(SIL lists Eastern Yiddish and Western Yiddish as distinct languages. 
Raphael?)

If there is no SIL code for a language, use the ISO 639 code, with a 
hyphenated extension if it's not a single language code.
