These last 5 entries aren't masks, they are type codes.  I'd rather
they be called FOO_TYPE than FOO_MASK.  In particular what is really
troubling is MISSING_MASK, being all 0 it always destroys the input
and then matches everything.  :-)

I'm going to amend this name change in here, s/_MASK/_TYPE/ on the
last 5 fields.
