Here's another one that is bogus:
PSARC 2008/654:
B2S_ERSVD
Target reserved. (Internal use only.)
The phrase "Internal use only." is used to indicate that the definition
is private to the framework, but not Sun confidential.
This is why we need a whitelisting mechanism. When I wrote the
document that was in the mail file, I didn't anticipate that it would be
clobbered because of an evil phrase that appeared in the text of my
materials. Clearly there is some contextual processing that a simple
script cannot fix.
Now, I have two choices:
1) just let the entire case be redacted and therefore useless to
external parties
2) change the wording in the case materials after the fact.
What I really want is an "override", which does
3) indicate that the usage of the evil phrase is not contextually bad.
Yes, I remain irked about all this. These case materials were published
externally prior to this (along with a bunch of others), now I have to
go back an fix them all. :-(

No, that should be "open" exposure. When a case is "open," it's
supposed to be white-listed. It's all open material, and people
commenting on it are duty-bound to avoid doing non-open things.
"Manual" exposure requires changes to the materials in order to open
things, which requires more work.
For 'manual' cases files need explicit tagging with a '.opensolaris.
suffix. And as you yourself have pointed out, this hasn't been done
properly. There are cases flagged as 'manual' with no '.opensolaris'
suffixes, which clearly shows that the 'manual' designation has been
sometimes been used improperly.
Actually, based on the cases that I've looked thorugh so far (I've
fixed a few dozen of them), what it apparently shows is that for about
two years, the tools were set up to mark all cases as "manual" by
default, and none of the folks using the tools really understood the
implications of that setting.
It was designed to be an obscure case, and then it was used as the
default!
I think John Plocher tried to point that out earlier.
I've repeatedly pointed out that the script is *not* just looking for
the word 'proprietary'. Please look at the redacted case list on
jurassic - the majority of cases have been redacted because they contain
the phrases "Sun Proprietary" or "Sun Confidential".
I know you're not checking for just that one word. But your check
*is* less stringent (and thus more encompassing) than the check that
was there before.
