The question is whether the bugs also without your work so fast
could have been localized.

Certainly it is disagreeable and frustrating if one develope his code
and are hindered by a bug in the basic system. But this is a way to find
Bugs.

It may sound discombobulated from my mouth, because I myself am no
developer. I am rather a theorist. Although I could already also help to
fix some programs.

Basically I only want to prevent You from stop your work on Hurd. ;-)
