Yes. You need to just read that page closely.
An important line to notice is "Bug reopened, originator not changed."
Clciking on the full text link nearby may give you some clue as to why it 
was reopened.
in this case the message says "bah.", so it would seem like a typo was the 
reason it was closed the first time.

Then the next message exxplains that the bug has been re-closed, and why.

Normally it is not difficult to see what happened, but that was slightly 
harder simply beacuse there were no messages
between the re-opening and the re-closing.
