G.f. conjectured to be non-D-finite (see Albert et al. link). - Jay Pantone, Oct 01 2015
Unlike A061552, whose g.f. is also conjectured to be non-D-finite, thousands of terms of the counting sequence are known. - David Callan, Aug 29 2017

EXAMPLE
a(4) = 21 because there are 24 permutations of length 4 and 3 of them do not avoid 4123, 4231, and 4312.
