It seems to me that bugs are rarely fixed if they are not reported to
the people who can actually fix them. So if you complain about Octave
bugs somewhere other than the Octave lists, it is much less likely
that someone who can fix the problem will notice. Presumably, if you
are having a problem and it persists for some time (several releases
or snapshots) then chances are good that other people are not noticing
your problem, or they don't think it is a problem.
