Hmm, I have a feeling my Tektronix used those. It was just possible to
grab them with pliers because of the washer behind them all.

Needless to say they got replaced with something more useful, as I
generally do with all oddball security screws - no sense in making it
hard for myself or someone else to take a apart at a later date! :)
