But you'd think they'd be able to come up with some way to automatically catch and develue large quantities of completely irrelevant anchor text...

Maybe they will downgrade the power of anchor text that isn't related to the page it is linking to, but they can't eliminate it - (I would bet that) half or more of their algorithm is about the number of links and anchor text!
