  On the one hand, I don't necessarily want to give away this info to 
anyone who might use it to end-run around this kind of check.
  On the other hand, I'm only certain I recognize about half of these 
terms -- there are a couple more which I recognize, but am unsure 
whether I'm making the association Arjan has in mind.
  On the assumption that stuff here could refer to threats I don't 
understand, I'd appreciate a line or two or a reference pointer on a 
number of these.  Privately is okay with me, although I suspect others 
here may also be interested....
