	"The worst of it is, Motorola supplies a bug list to its

	action against some of its own employees who were telling
	customers about chip bugs."

I don't know how this rumor got started, or why people keep repeating
it.  National distributes regular chip bug reports; I've been getting
one every few months ever since the 16032 began sampling.  We've also
discovered and contributed some novel bugs, and they've all shown up in
the reports, so I don't think they're holding anything back.
