Maybe I'm just less accepting than you. Just because someone whose interests are best served by saying it's someone else's fault says so doesn't make it so. And why would they apply a workaround to some things and not others?
Even if they are right, it would be sensible to either work around it or provide information as to what the bug is so that other people might be able to fix it, or encourage it to be fixed.
