To make or become bogus. A program that has been changed so many
times as to become completely disorganized has become bogotified. If
you tighten a nut too hard and strip the threads on the bolt, the
bolt has become bogotified and you had better not use it any more.
This coinage led to the notional autobogotiphobia defined as `the
fear of becoming bogotified'; but is not clear that the latter has
ever been `live' jargon rather than a self-conscious joke in jargon
about jargon. See also {bogosity}, {bogus}.
