Subject: Bugs that are inadvertently fixed
I've been browsing some of the old javac bugs. As one would expect, some of them have been "inadvertently" fixed over the years, but they are still marked open in the bug tracker (example: JDK-6608961<https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-6608961>).

What should I do when coming across these, if anything?

As a non-committer I don't have write access to the bug tracker. So I could just email them to this mailing list, but that might get annoying.

Or I could just leave them alone.

Please advise.

Thanks,
-Archie
