That seems like a gross mischaracterization, at least by looking at the
Bugzilla bug filed by you which I believe this corresponds to. The bug
was reported two days ago (Sep 6), the first comment came less than an
hour after that, and the first attempted fix was attached less than two
hours after the bug was filed. Further comments explained how it was
proving hard to find what and where was actually going wrong to put in
the right fix. 10 replies total in less than two days. To me it seems
obvious work is being done.
