How do you decide what things have to be fixed in old tarballs ? Do you
test each old tarballs every now and then and apply the corresponding
patches to them ?

What if patching the old tarball cause other regressions ?

What if someone wants to use an old tarball in an old system that would
be broken because of this patching ? You would have to maintain a lot of
old tarballs version...

I don't think it is feasible.
