On the other hand, not putting it in bugzilla will *guarantee* it is forgotten 
and never fixed.

And actually, several people regularly go through bugzilla removing dups, fixing 
what they can, resolving things that were corrected by other fixes, and drawing 
attention to others.

Very, very few get marked as "will not fix".

Nobody goes through the newsgroup doing this.

Bugzilla has its problems, but I've not seen a better way to do this.
