can't say I'm off to a flying start with this one so please give me some clue about the preamble:

'Answers to asterisked clues are - of course - undefined. 8 21?'

8 21 is one of the few I've solved and it's another mystification, which I don't think helps, so what does Enigmatist mean by this instruction (most clues are asterisked)
