Exactly what it's always been. They are locally mappable in every domain.
This isn't going to change, but it doesn't prevent a RECOMMENDED value if
the scavenger PHB or one of its relatives gets standardised.

There's nothing special about the scavenger PHB in this respect. The same
issue of mapping at domain boundaries arises for any DSCP. Let's not
have that particular flamefest here. The diffserv-interest list is the
place for that.
