We don't mark coverity false positives with comments in the
source. For the free online scanner, we just mark them as
false positives in the GUI (with an explanation of why they're
false positives).

It's weird that the ones listed in the email don't show up
in the GUI, but if they're not in the GUI as unresolved issues
then they're not a problem :-)
