It's not hard to imagine what happened... For anyone wishing to work on these I attach the script I have been using.

# script to handle bugs with no maintainer
#
# Needs:
# w3m - to retrieve the webpage with bugs
# mail - to be able to close bugs
#
# Suggested workflow would be:
#
# $ unk-pkg list any all
#
# to get a full list of bugs and look for patterns
#
# unk-pkg list <pkg-pattern> open
#
# this should provide you with a list of bugs for a package/pattern to
# decide on further action, contact maintainers, etc.
#
# unk-pkg list <pkg-pattern> patch
#
# these bugs contain patches, you might want to investigate
# whether they are still valuable
#
# unk-pkg close <pkg-pattern> open
#
# assuming you already created the message body (after discussing
# with maintainers) as $PKG.mail this will send a test message
#
# To: $bugs-done@localhost
# Bcc: $USER@localhost
#
# add 'notest' to send a real -done message to all bugs,
# Bcc: debian-qa@lists.debian.org
