That's not such an easy distinction to make. If the fix is proper, it wouldn't
be in staging anyway, but in vanilla Wine.

If the bug exists in vanilla wine, but not wine-staging, it is reasonable to
make the status 'STAGED'.

Side note: the staging version is less hacky than the original submission..
