[Zack Weinberg]

I just got this error message from control@debbugs.gnu.org.  It looks
like it's running an older version of debbugs that doesn't understand
-1 in control commands as "this bug". If it's not already planned,
could you please add an upgrade to your to-do list?  If it is already
planned, may I ask what the schedule is?

Thanks,
zw
