I agree that it would be nice if the exceptions were
documented in the man page.  They are quite nicely
documented in the code, though:

		/*
		 *  noattach is sandboxing.
		 *
		 *  the OK exceptions are:
		 *	|  it only gives access to pipes you create
		 *	d  this process's file descriptors
		 *	e  this process's environment
		 *  the iffy exceptions are:
		 *	c  time and pid, but also cons and consctl
		 *	p  control of your own processes (and unfortunately
		 *	   any others left unprotected)
		 */
		n = chartorune(&r, up->genbuf+1)+1;
		/* actually / is caught by parsing earlier */
		if(utfrune("M", r))
			error(Enoattach);
		if(up->pgrp->noattach && utfrune("|decp", r)==nil)
			error(Enoattach);
