Oh I agree that submitting a bug report together with a patch is ideal
and seldom causes offence. I'm more concerned about browsing through the
buglist and fixing bugs which have already been assigned to folks (like
the aforementioned #100701, which is accepted and assigned to Josh, but
which has no comments after 15/12/2003). IMHO this can be extremely
annoying to the assignee.
