Just about any GPL'ed code that isn't backed by a large team.

I obviously can't show any code that are used in commercial
projects... and the rest of what I've written are mostly small tools
and snippets. Things to be used by me that aren't released
often are rather hackish - that's one of the reasons I don't often
release stuff. One of my hacks that I *have* released, though,
can be found at http://f0dder.reteam.org/ring3msr_20040417.zip .
Not one of the best examples of clean code, though.
