OK, got the point. The bug is not a metabug meant to gather together
the bugs fixed by a given release, but more a list of "blocker"
bugs. Makes sense.

Nor problem with that. I'm actualy in my "bug triage" mood (the only
moment in the year where the count of bugs in the Debian package is
lowering...:-)) and trying to figure out what will be fixed by 3.6.6
among the big mess you can see at 

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=samba;dist=unstable

Unfortunately, this : http://qa.debian.org/data/bts/graphs/s/samba.png
is always depressive..:-)
(and this year, I'll have hard times bringing this graph down to 60 or
so...)
