 You'll find that there are people even more qualified to criticise the
 way the PR database is handled, namely the volunteers who handle it. 
 For example, check this out... ;-)
 
 You're quite right.  Your PR could definitely have been closed with a
 message better geared toward putting you at ease.
 
 Now...
 
 All we can really offer you as consolation is that there are lots of
 PRs and not as many people working on them.  So if we can at least
 limit the database to one PR per problem, the folks doing the work of
 tackling problems are more likely to find their investment of time
 paying wortwhile dividends.
 
 So please try to be understanding of the volunteers who do what they can
 to ensure that FreeBSD works as well as possible for as many people as
 possible.  Even when we make mistakes while doing so. :-)
 
 Ciao,
 Sheldon.
