More troubling to me is how this is happening more and more often...
Major bugs that go thought the entire beta, AND the entire life cycle
with no fix!

Lets start with QEMU on Gutsy.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144368
Found to be BOCH BIOS
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123185
Fixed in Intrepid... Gutsy is still broken.

Hard Drive cycles?
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59695
Broken since Gutsy, and still having issues... Only Bug 1 is longer
running.

It seems to me that regressions are coming faster with every release.
Every other bug I have subscribed to has bee fixed in the lifecycle of
that release. But we are getting more and more that are only fixed with
an upgrade. (Like the Intrepid Kernel locks) How do we bug this problem?
