Perhaps rather than telling us off for giving you good bug hunting advice, you could just follow it, and when you encounter a problem, always check to see if it occurs in the latest version before reporting it. Wading through bugs that no longer exist wastes a lot of time; a lot more time than you just checking to see if the latest version suffers. B.
