Part of QA's job is to find mistakes.  Their view is "Zero flaws = good 
product."  They also have (or should have) a set of (sometimes written) 
guidelines by which they consistently follow that gets code into that 
final "good product" state.  Each person should consistently try to 
improve themselves and assume they aren't perfect.  No one likes having 
their mistakes pointed out to them and programmers are especially LAZY 
when it comes to fixing their code.  What I do is take the mistakes that 
get pointed out to me, initially balk at the idea I did something wrong, 
then immediately switch gears and think maybe I did something wrong, 
then I attempt to go fix whatever is wrong (which inevitably breaks two 
more things).  Wash, rinse, repeat.  It is a work in progress to 
eliminate the "balking" phase.

In this case, have you tried joyfully fixing the "mistakes" instead of 
complaining about it?  Mistakes are inevitable - programmers see the 
trees, QA should be viewing the forest.  Plus you have to work with 
these people.  And they ARE people after all.  And they are trying to 
work with you too.
