From what I can gather, in our databases the 1993 releases all (or pretty much all, bar a couple) have 13 digit barcodes. So there may be one or two clashes, which I guess if the right formats are used for that release will be avoided - but it's difficult to say (I'm not back at work until August, so I have no idea what's going on, other people are taking care of this, thank god!).
