Yeah, basically don't reopen bugs :-) unless its worksforme or some other "I couldn't reproduce this" state and you've figured out a sure-fire way to reproduce it. e.g. people ran around reopening 5 or 6 month old "recently-used document list missing" bugs because there was a new bug with a flaw in migrating settings from old profiles to new profiles which looked like the old still-fixed bug. On the face of it they looked like similar things, but there were utterly different under-the-hood so its confuses things. No great hardship in having a few additional bugs, when in doubt, and letting them be combined together as duplicates after some analysis.
