Can you elaborate what the approximation is? I fail to see it.
1 julian year = 365.25 days of 86400 SI seconds each.
Of course there are lots of other definitions for year but if FPC uses the 
julian one the value is exact and no approximation. And it is one of the year 
definitions that make sense as a unit of time (in contrast to calendar year ...)
