What's bogus about that? The email address is that of our mailing list,
we use it for subsystems where we don't have a particular maintainer. L:
gets translated to "open list" and the MAINTAINERS section is apparently
titled "POSIX". Comments to be ignored by MTAs can be indicated in
parenthesis as far as I remember RFC822, so it seems semantically and
syntactically correct. What would need to be sanitized?
I have once seen that break when replying to messages though. Maybe when
the list of CCs gets broken into multiple lines? That would be a
git-send-email or MUA problem then though.
