I don't want to remove them altogether, because there's a certain
amount of information in there that /may/ prove useful in the future.
But given that right now they are not likely to be relevant, I bumped
the priority for all of them way down, so that they show up at the
bottom of the reports:

As we identify ones (I didn't actually read them carefully, I just
went over all of them) which we're /certain/ are never going to be
relevant, it's certainly OK to just close them.  But at least now
they're reasonably out of the way.

I didn't find a 'postpone' option in Trac, so I used priority lowering
as the next-best solution.  If you prefer an alternative, let me know.

Cheers,
