Hi Roar,

Both of these look to be "well-known" (i.e. trivially reproduced) LORs. 
No one seems to have been willing to step up to disable the warnings for 
them or otherwise eliminate them, though, so they still pop up and 
surprise people.

Thanks for taking the time to report them, and sorry that they've been 
sitting untouched for so long.
