The patch solves a problem that is hopefully short-term, so the bugreport serves its purpose if it remains available to people who have the same problem, until a real fix is put in place. I don't know the detailed mechanics of bug report management, but some action that makes the report still visible, but signals that no action is needed, would seem appropriate. Dave
