Can you then add some kind of "+ wontfix woody" to the bug report?
It's just for people who see a Redhat/Mandrake/etc bug report and then
try to compare the CAN numbers with the Debian changelog.

To the security team: It's ok if some bugs are not worth fixing them, I
leave the decission to you and the maintainer but what is the right way
to check this? Maybe the nonvulns-woody could be enhanced by this CAN
numbers, too? 
BTW: The search engine on www.debian.org does not even find the CAN numbers
for the latest security reports :) I file a bug for this separately.

bye,
