If you reported the bug ... and it is a known bug ... then the answer is available at http://metalink.oracle.com. If you don't have a metalink account open one with your CSI number. If you don't have a CSI number how and where did you report the problem? And by all means give us the bug number so we can look it up.

I don't know who started this rant but I've no problem with responding when what is posted doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
