We could define these stop words without punctuation, and the CSL processor
could do the matching after deleting any periods in titles, and replacing
any single quote marks and apostrophes by spaces. So we would have "c",
"ca", "v", "vs" and "d" as stop words, and a title like "Palme d'Or vs.
Smith" would be preprocessed to "Palme d Or vs Smith", after which the
individual words are matched against the stop word list.
