IIUC, regzbot might not notice because the patch lacks a Link: tag
to the original regression report. The Link tag is to Jan's patch
that was posted sometime in April, I think, which also lacks the
Link tag to the original report of the regression which did not
happen until May 4. If regzbot is smart enough to notice that the
patch also has a Fixes: tag for the commit that was identified as
bad in the original regression report, then I expect regzbot will
find it.
