Ok but there is no selection by architacture on the search form
at http://www.debian.org/Bugs/.

Further it is not at all obvious from the result screen that
this bug is fixed for over 99.99% of all users (ie it is fixed
for everybody except users of a research project with
disfunctional buildds, and that I as a maintainer can do damn
little to change anything about that.

I'm somewhat annoyed by the prospect of having the BTS search
results fill up with long-ago fixed issues, the PTS keeping to
bich me about fixed issues and that nice bug graph and such
things will probably list all those bugs as open too for some
months to come.

Sorry if I'm unfair to the hurd, it's probably an interesting
project.

ciao, 2ri
