peter, you are deliberately ignoring all other discussion of the topic because
it is most convenient to you to twist Jason's words.

As Curt pointed out, we searched our *entire* bug-tracking system for anything
from Jim, or anyone from umich at all, or anything containing the strings
"citi" or "CITI".

We found *nothing* which is open now.

We found *nothing* which was open for more than a few days, which was ever
submitted at all.

IIRC, Curt (who did most of the searching) indicated that as far as the
database indicates Jim Rees *never* filed a bug report with us.

However, Jason went to the length of searching the archive of email sent to
core@netbsd.org, to see if perhaps anything very urgent had been sent there
and slipped through the cracks.  He didn't find anything.

Again: as far as we can tell, you guys have *no* open bug reports with us.  If
you're going to bitch about The Man's System, you might try using it first.
