The proper thing for *you* to do is to reply directly to
the issue in IssueTracker. Please provide your explanation
there and change the status appropriately.

An FAQ entry might be nice but the first place people
(usually) go when they think they have found an error to
report is the Axiom IssueTracker. We should have answers
such as Waldek's there. In fact we already have several
such issues ansered in this way.
