In looking at some unix source code, I've encountered several uses of
the word 'frobbed'.  From the context, it appears that it means
'manipulated in some unspecified way'.  Is this an accurate
interpretation, or is there another meaning?  Is this even a
unix-domain word, or just some neologism generated by a bored
programmer?
