I appreciate your thoughtful reply. So far, it is the only one. Here is the 
thing, if it is indeed this complex, and I fear it may be, the only safe 
thing I see to do is to leave all NC works out of the picture. Which is a 
shame, but when there is possible jail time and hugh statutory fines possible 
for copyright violations, it is not the time to take chances.

So again, I think NC is not spelled out clearly enough to be safe to use in 
many cases. Am I off base here?

No, I don't think you're off base at all. I think you should just leave out NC works entirely.
