that's exactly why i'm ashamed. 'cause i knew about this bug for almost a year and a half, yet never tried to find out what was wrong until i have to write some windows code, which was very uncomfortable to do in virtual machine. i.e. i knew that the bug exists (but didn't know why) and don't bothered to report it. > Me, for example, I very very rarely bother to report a bug in a product > I use.
