Well normally during BETA Test...when a bug is found, then reported, it gets put on a fix list... the more ppl that report it the higher the number it get therefore the higher the number the faster it get a PATCH or FIX.. average time is 4 to 5 months... this last bug was known in Dec 2006. and the patch was not released untill the numbers of "WTF" was very big.

such as the Copy-paste-speed fix... was not released until 3-31-07 here is some info about the release:
