Quote from a NG post by a Microsoft techie, explaining why a certain
bug will not be fixed in their .NET IDE:

  Many people don't know this, but the software industry
  has studied bugs and fixing bugs and has determined
  that (on average) every three lines of code modified
  to fix a bug introduces a new bug.

Does the Open Source community have any similar study/statistic?

Just curious.
