I'm still open on this, but I wouldn't release an official patch without 
having it properly tested, so putting out an untested patch is not what I 
consider a good solution.  Even the current patches are not "officially" 
released but are attached to an open bug report.

Can you explain why a patch would help with a "distribution packaged version 
of Bacula"?

In any case, any patch to 2.0, will come after a 2.2.3 release, verification 
of 2.2.x patches, and proper documentation of the problem.  To do it 
correctly, this will take some time.  I only just reproduced the problem and 
came up with what seems like a good fix yesterday.
