Bugs 38570 and 38726 do not reproduce for the trunk, 6.0.18, or 5.5.27. 
I noted this in the bug but didn't close them - should I?

However, bug 39013 still occurs on the trunk (as of yesterday). I trace 
through and found a one-liner that solved the reported issue and 
attached the patch to the bug. As noted in the bug comments, I could 
easily have overlooked or broken something inadvertently.

Thanks,
Kirk

First off, many thanks for taking a look at these. You help is very much
appreciated.

Absolutely. Given that it is always possible that I missed something in my
testing, I usually add something along the lines of "... If you still see
this issue on the latest stable release please provide a test case and/or
instructions to reproduce from a clean installation.". Sometimes people do
come back with better reports or test cases.

That's great. One of the committers will take a look and commit it or
suggest improvements. Bear with us if it takes a little while.

In terms of what's next, I'd suggest browsing through the bugzilla reports
and picking the ones that look interesting. As always, drop dev@tomcat.a.o
an e-mail if you have any questions.

Mark
