I would bet these sensors are identical to other Supermicro boards I've
supported.  What is the product id of your board?  You can see it with
bmc-info.  I can add it to the list and that should get the
interpretation working correctly [1]

I altered the logic slightly from older versions.  I think the logic is
correct, b/c if I don't know unrecognized states, I don't know if the
sensor is good/bad.  However, I can perhaps add a workaround to ignore
unrecognized states.  That would fix the problem for you.  Let me work
on that.

[1] - Naturally, it would be best to add all Supermicro boards into
FreeIPMI so I don't have to keep on doing this.  But unless Supermicro
can tell me "product IDs X to Y are in the Z product line with these OEM
sensors", I cannot predict it and have been adding product IDs 1 by 1.
