I added it while working to fix a bug.  I didn't ever finish fixing it,
and I can't remember what the bug was right now.  However, I do remember
reading the 5394 and seeing that we weren't handling aid codes quite
right.  Feel free to un-foobar it and I'll leave it alone until I have the
correct solution.
