I didn't have that specific bug in mind, no.

If feel that to provide specific examples of 'package-monkey' behaviour
_would_ be impolite to the individuals concerned -- regardless of the
terminology I use; I'd be saying "I'm concerned by the quality of
maintenance from people like $foo; we need to make sure we keep them in
order and not let them find any extra excuses not to maintain their
package properly."

I merely expressed concern at the _possibility_ that this might happen,
and I seem to have been assured that it won't be allowed to happen. So
that's good.
