John:

We do this the same way we do it in C, C++, etc.  Acknowlege that the
bugs exist, find workarounds to solve our problems and deliver our
products and keep up so we know when fixes come about.  I haven't
worked a language/api that wasn "rife with bugs" yet, so I don't know
anything else.

In this case, decide if having this fix is worth one of your JDC votes
(and convince a few friends as well) and vote for the bug.  Worked for
the Linux folks (current #1 bug on BugParade).

The other thing I do is keep revisiting pet bugs on the Parade. 
Oftentimes someone comes along and shares how they've worked around or
solved the problem.

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will
be ignored.  If I have time, I'll respond, but you  have
a better chance if you confine your posts to the newsgroups
