Indeed, in the instant case, I was hardly the first one to notice the
problem and report the bug. Christian's initial reply to me consisted
only of a reference to a previous bug report--closed, of course, which
is why I didn't see it the first time.
If he'd kept the previous submitter's bug open until the bug was
fixed, he wouldn't have had to deal with me at all.
