The current ISO 639 code for Hebrew is "he" and no longer "iw". However the 
code still returns "iw".

For historical compatibility reasons, CLD2 returns a few older or unexpected 
language code spellings:
  iw instead of he for Hebrew
  jw instead of jv for Javanese
  ku-Arab for Kurdish Sorani, ckb-Arab
  ku-Latn for Kurdish Kumanji, kmr-Latn (late 2014)
  lif for Limbu
  ro-Cyrl for Moldavian
  tlh for Klingon
  zh for Simplified Chinese
  zh-Hant for Traditional Chinese
  zzp for Pig Latin

Feel free to write your own wrapper around a call to CLD2 if you want different 
codes.
