While your bugfixing efforts are appreciated, I do actually think it might not be such a good idea to actually NMU those packages just for the sake of fixing RC bugs. Those bugs are all quite long-standing, and so far, apparantly nobody has cared about them. And except autorespond which is in woody, those packages are not in woody, sarge or etch at the moment. I think that rather than having this type of long-standing RC bugs fixed by people not genuinly interested *in that particular package* per se, but only fixing them because of it's fixing RC bugs, is bad. Why? Because apparantly nobody really cares about those packages, and then they are better off being removed, rather than only the most important bugs fixed by bypassers, and for the rest the package left in an sad state.
