Ok, so I found this discussion that could explain:
http://lists.mandriva.com/bugteam/2009-05/msg00022.php : errata keyword would
be used by packagers to remember what bug (being still open, or resolved for a
later release) to have listed in the release errata.

That's a good idea, but... the errata doc is constantly evolving from alpha1 to
final (what was an errata for alpha2 may be fixed, hopefully, for beta1).

So there's still a manual process to check what is to be put in the errata
notes (that will be freezed at the final release, so any later change to an
errata bug should not affect it).

This still makes sense, but this keyword use case and description really must
be clear, understood and managed by release managers and maintainers. Has this
been discussed in QA or dev teams?
