The issue is whether components will be mounted into the holes.
IPC-6012, Qualification and Peformance Specification for Printed Rigid
Boards (to supersede IPC-RB-276), states that solder mask may tent or
plug vias or through holes, as long as the hole is not required to be
solder filled.
If a component is to be mounted through the hole, the mask cannot
"encroach" upon the barrel of the hole.
