Wrong POS in parse: POS=WORD

Below are several examples of non-assigned POS. I specified which word that is after each sentence.

I noticed that in case of idioms constituent words are labeled with pos=WORD.
I am not sure if that's right, or it's better to set something special like this: pos=IDIOM in this case.
I think WORD probably shouldn't ever occur as pos.

[linas (linasvepstas)]

"WORD" is used as a place-holder, meaning "I don't know the pos"

I've fixes the first 8 sentences so far. But
"The dogs, some of them very large, ran after the man."
is still broken, I am not sure of the right way to tag words in idiomatic phrases.

More unhandled idiomatics:

The man was chased by dogs, some of them very large.
Glaring coldly at Sarah, he walked out of the room.
That's just the kind of person he is.
I finally figured out why this program is so slow.

All the other sentences now work, with the exception of:

Neither Mary nor Louise are coming to the party.
Either I or my friend know what happened.

The above two don't work because, at the moment, we don't export the "fat links" used by link-grammar to process conjunctions. This is a generic problem, conjuctions will not be correctly tagged for now.

Err, actually, I hacked around the above conjunction-tagging problem, for now.
