Also, please note that we don't file bugs on any versions not yet

Why not? A bug which happened to have been noticed in
a version compiled from git might have existed for some
time. We don't expect the Bug Squad to do this research,
do we?
We expect the Bug Squad to test on the latest development release.
OK. I see one of the actions for a Bug Squad member
is to generate a png file demonstrating the problem.
This clearly would demonstrate whether a problem which
happened to be noticed in a git build was present in
the latest GUB release.
So I was wrong - we _do_ expect them to do this research.
Presumably they should forward the report to -dev if the
bug does not show in the latest GUB release.
