Edge... it's been my experience if google is allowed in they assume all the rest of their little bots are allowed, too... hence if you DON'T want Googlebot-Mobile (example) you'd have to disallow that one.

I generally whitelist (allow) a handful of useful bots and disallow all others. Makes for a much shorter robots.txt !
