Matthias, to Martin's point, the level of testing we see in each release goes down significantly as new stable releases are available. This is evident in the number of untested SRU's that have been pushed into natty-proposed and stayed there because not even the original reporters return to verify the fix.
So while I understand the frustration, please understand that we have to prioritize the testing resources and development resources we have. Since natty users can upgrade directly to oneiric and have this solved, and the subset of users affected is limited, its in the greater interest of Ubuntu users to pass on backporting the fix to natty.
