You can use Bugzilla to report bugs in any version and we can consider it resolved in Bugzilla when we fix them in any version. There is a separate, developer-driven procedure for backporting changes to stable branches. You took the hint to post to dev@ (though perhaps not exactly as intended); I'll see that your fix is proposed for backport to 2.0.x, and developers will have a chance to approve it. Peace! Don't waste so much of your patience or others' over a one line patch which you can apply to new source distributions in almost no time at all.
