gg5, prog, nc, eij.  all have 'vine'
  Comments: 
wikipedia defines 'bine' as the ~opposite~ of what was given as the original definition:

the original amendment to remove 'vine', etc. and replace it with a confusing definition was unreferenced and should be reversed, IMO

I think having the explanatory bit in sense 2 will be helpful, since none of the English terms I found and listed here sounded all that familiar to me.
