Default DXCC life cycle of 6O (Somalia)?

Rumaging through a box of QSLs accumulated over the last 40 years, I
see that I have confirmations for about 200 countries, so maybe it's
finally time to apply for DXCC :-)

I understand how deleted countries work, but what about Somalia? If
memory serves, that country, or parts of it with similar names, has
come into and gone out of existence several times since I got a 6O1ND
card back in 1963.

Is it just a wash, because a country of that name, in more or less the
same place is now on the DXCC list?
