I qualify them as "out of date".

That is a 4-year old crafty version.  It has changed _significantly_ since it
was submitted to spec-2000.  That version was originally submitted in 1999.

You can quote 4+ year old results all you want, but it does _not_ mean they are
accurate today...  I have much newer results, on the current program, as does
several others (Eugene included).
