Once (or if ever!) there is a proper list it can be looked at properly. Some, like the 2000 patent which apparently covers 1980's sudo, will be laughed at, but I think it would be wise on our side of the fence not to assume all of them will be so trivial.
The other thing to remember is that most of these patents will not be enforceable outside the US. Software patents are not valid in Europe and the vast armies of Linux users in South America and China are unlikely to feel threatened by Microsoft.
