I'll try to not belabour the point too badly, but I've posted a fix
and a patch (twice); posted notices of both to the buglist and the
mailing list, and have had little or no response.

One bug (#1115) was re-reported by Giulio Orsero and was resubmitted
as #1140.  Still no fix, even though I posted a patch.

Another is a wishlist item (#1112) and has no response outside of
Vlad's rejection of it (perfectly valid, in my opinion).  No official
response, however...

I realize you all are busy, but only thing talking to me right now is
the automated bug system... I'm trying to be patient, and I suspect
that my own failings are showing, but I'd like to know something at
least.

Thanks for the hard work!  What's keeping you all so busy anyway?
