That statement has also been made some years before, yes.

Unfortunately, these do not seem to give much humanity, or a reason
for the decision against applying the patch in debian as well in the
meantime. (To follow the debian-devel discussion, unblock other bugs,
and close the gap to ubuntu.)


Also, could you please state clearly wether you actually
forwarded the patch to upstream, and what its meaninfull upstream
status is. (To let us know that it has been properliy reported
upstream and is being dealt with, and not just used as a kind of
not-our-business tag.)
