Consider yourself lucky if the bug stays open and isn't auto-closed after two releases. No you can't re-open the beast, just open a new one. No you didn't get notified to check whether the problem is solved, that'd be too easy.

Affected (or rather affecting) projects shall not be named here. You know who you are.
