ICANN inherited a number of INT registrations when it assumed management of the zone. Since 2005, at least, and probably since 1998, only treaty-based organizations who meet the other criteria have been given registrations, to the best of my knowledge. I believe that ICANN uses an outside expert who has experience with UN treaty organizations to evaluate the requests for .INT registrations.
FWIW, that policy definitely predates 2003, although I can't speak authoritatively as to how long it was in place before I joined the staff.
