I think this is the easiest and more practical solution.

we should also alert the most active bibisecter that their job in these  
bugs is different...
they usually look for the version were the bug appears first, this time  
where the bug is finally gone.
it's kind of reverse bibisecting... that program was ideated to find bugs  
but you can also use it to find fixes.
