It will be 7.0.53. See:
http://svn.us.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/tc7.0.x/trunk/webapps/docs/changelog.xml

To be perfectly honest, no. The problem is already fixed. The Tomcat
developers don't create a bug report for every issue. We tend to use
Bugzilla as a list of things still to fix so if someone reports a bug we
know we aren't going to fix straight away, we'll ask them to create a
Bugzilla entry for it so it doesn't get lost. In this case all that
would happen is that  you'd create it and I'd immediately close it as fixed.
