In the Reference Grammar, section 4.16 talks of using fu'ivla of the
form

  CCVVCV

for those cultural purposes not covered by the gismu.  The corresponding
form

  CCVVCy

can then be used as a rafsi to form lujvo.

Is this stuff still considered baselined?  In which case Pierre's list
will need transforming into this format.  If it's not considered to be
current Lojban any more I'd like to know, as I was going to be building
support for this into the next release of jbofi'e (in terms of the
algorithm to split lujvo into rafsi at least).  Clearly this might save
me some work :-)
