I stopped waiting long ago.  If the bugs are filed as proper bug reports, in a
proper bug database, then I think you are more likely to find someone who is
willing/able to fix them.  This bug evidently never occurs in a normal
compilation buffer, so it is a marginal one at best.  I can't see how anyone
benefits from holding back the release for such bugs, except, perhaps,
the vendors of proprietary software.
