buried treasure
n. A surprising piece of code found in some program. While usually not
wrong, it tends to vary from crufty to bletcherous , and has lain
undiscovered only because it was functionally correct, however horrible it
is. Used sarcastically, because what is found is anything but treasure.
Buried treasure almost always needs to be dug up and removed.
