[Cc:'d to jkh, since if it has been fixed, he should know]

You presumed wrongly, I believe.

I don't follow -commit, but comparing -current sysinstall to the one I
found this bug with revealed no differences likely to fix the problem.
Moreover, the only changes after the 14th of October were to the help/
directory.  Using the 2.2-961014-SNAP release, I verified that the bug
still exists, as reported.  (I will admit that one of the steps-to-repeat
has changed marginally, but it's very intuitive to figure out what to do).

I suppose you probably thought the bug had been fixed since J'oerg (or was
it J Wunsch?  apologies to the one it wasn't...) incorrectly replied to
the bugreport that it had been fixed.  Jordan replied to the reply that
this particular bug had not been fixed, but Jordan's reply wasn't saved by
the gnats program.

I was going to use the previous paragraph to suggest that it would've been
helpful to search the -bugs list for any other comments on misc/1757 until
I noticed that none of the comments (or in fact the original bugreport)
had managed to get archived yet....  Why must it take _so_ long for
messages to become properly archived and searchable?  For the mailing-list
archives, I would consider speedy archival to be a Good Thing (tm).
