Me, me, me [bug ref 3420]

I decided to look in bugzilla myself, and I found that it was indeed  
entered as a bug by the ever-gracious Mr. Gaskin on 23.3.06.   Marcus  
from Runrev accepted that it "is pathological" and should  probably  
be considerd a bug (and it is indeed still open as a bug).  When I  
searched back through the archive for March this year, I found there  
was already a lengthy discussion of this between you, Mark Smith, and  
Richard.  All three of you agreed it seemed to be a bug, and Richard  
even told you he put it in bugzilla for you (in fact, he entered 2  
bug reports for it).

In bugzilla it is given a severity of minor, which since it only  
appears to affect your idiomatic usage of Rev, and since Richard  
provided you with a workaround (even though it is one that you do not  
like), "minor" is probably a reasonable severity.

What then is the point of you bringing up the matter again and asking  
us to discuss if this behaviour is buggy, when you must know full  
well that it has already been accepted as a bug?  Not only did you  
not have to go to the trouble of entering this bug, according to  
bugzilla you haven't even bothered to vote for it yourself!

I fail to understand your conception of yourself as someone who wants  
Runrev to do well.   Your words and actions on this list suggest the  
opposite to me.

I wish I had the magnanimty of Richard Gaskin.
