Ah, ok, that explains it, then. As you noted, these made it straight to
master because of the security embargo.

Thanks for satisfying my curiosity (and for running your script!).

I do wonder if you might be better off comparing master@{1} to master to
see if anything new appears (since I assume the whole point is ignoring
historical false positives, and just looking at patches under active
development).
