(Wichert, there's now some stuff that's plausibly worth merging with your bugscan. How would you like to go about doing this?)

(NB: this bug is already in the 'fixed' state). *sigh* Okay, I've played around and copied some stuff from Wichert's release-critical bugs script, and come up with the following. It excludes done bugs, forwarded bugs, wishlist bugs, and fixed bugs. It even has some spiffy comments, just like Wichert's reports. http://master.debian.org/~ajt/oldbugs.txt It should be being updated daily or so. If you're a generally wonderful person (like Vincent! :) and want to fix some bugs, make a post here and I'll add a "[STRATEGY]" for the package/bug or something similar. Comments are of course appreciated. Anyway...
