Hi Paul.

I would say "go for it!". I think it's better to get it corrected early, 
because it'd be a nag for a long time otherwise.
This basically goes for all kinds of bugs.

Personally I hate that the GNU assembler is not bug-fixed, because of fear of 
making it incompatible.
As for my own development, I fix bugs and make things consistent (as I know 
that inconsistency may introduce further bugs later on too, plus sometimes 
large work-arounds).


Love
Jens
