Aah, nice to see you too, Graham ;-)

Well, this bug was added on the 8th of February, so that's quite a
while already. And though I can't say I remember *all* 600+ bugs in
the tracker, I have browsed and reviewd them extensively enough to
keep familiar with them.

You are right.
That being said, I don't intend to leave soon, and if I do, I'll run a
full review of the tracker before I leave.

Granted, this report could have been more specific (the reason why I
didn't add any description back then was that it affected a
well-documented documentation example plus a regtest).
I usually only include an image when needed (for instance when the
output could seem ok, or when it only affects one detail), and if I
didn't then it means that the problem was obvious when looking at the
output -- which it is no longer, so that means the bug has been fixed.
Cheers,
