Right. So I have looked in the IATA Ticketing Handbook, and guess what:

The revalidation "sticker" used by the airline (that used to go on paper tickets to cover up the wrong information) does include a Carrier column.

However, the revalidation "sticker" used by travel agents does not include a Carrier column.

"Note: The carrier must not be changed by travel agents." [but the operating carrier can be changed by the ticketing carrier.]

So whether you get hit by the re-issuance fee is up to the policy of the ticketing airline.
