Neither do I when I can help it :-).

They should, but why wait for a new release?  This is what Open Source
is about :-).  You found a bug, you fix the bug (on your system), then
you hope the maintainers include the fix in the next release.

(For example, when I had to use windows I found out that mutt saved
attachments by opening the file in text mode.  Windows thus took great
pleasure in destroying the file (by adding CR characters).  I fixed it
in my copy so I could continute to use mutt, and then reported it to
the developers.  I think the current version shipping with cygwin (it
wasn't even shipped when I installed it) is fixed.)

If your company is not involved in something called "ISO 9000" you probably
have no idea what it is.  If your company _is_ involved in ISO 9000 then you
definitely have no idea what it is.
