Thanks for the speedy reply and resolution :-).

Ah, but for someone that's using lots of different packages, that 
implies a volume of mail that is just too much to handle. Also, if I 
find something that looks like a bug and see reports of somthing similar 
  on the dev-Mailinglist from half a year ago, how do I find out whether 
that bug was fixed?

I assume setting up bugzilla/trac or something similar has been 
discussed and isn't wanted? It would sure help downstream people a lot.
