I do realize that this is a volunteer run project,
where you can't force anyone to do anything.
That wasn't really my intention anyway.

My point was just this specific bug being a regression,
which I assumed would be treated differently for 1.0 than some random bug.
For example if this were the linux kernel, the person doing the fancy new
rewrite would be expected to fix the resulting regressions, or it would get
reverted if that was not possible and the regression wasn't just a nuisance.
Of course this can't be done 2 years later.

I can't fix the bug either, but I assume that the author of the commit that
introduced this has probably the most insight in what might be to blame and
what not than some random person not familiar with wine internals.

In any case I'll shut up now, and apologize if I sounded demanding or insulting
at any point.
