I very much don't agree with the above. It is useless to keep bugs open
if they are not actionable. Bugs are reminders for the maintainers of
what they should do. If they can't do anything, then it goes on the way
to do useful things, and it is best if they can be closed.

P.S: I don't know about this particular bug, just reacting on your
sentence above.
