Methanol-water mix freezing points - clarify contradictory online data > 60% w/w?

Extending an exploration of windshield washer-fluid choices to freezing points of methanol-water mixes, all web-sources located agreed to within a couple of degrees from 0-60% w/w, yet above this proportion (and below 100%), repeatedly came across conflicting data (which fell into three groups). (Yes, the disagreements are all outside the range of winter driving on this planet - except perhaps for around Vostok Station...)
