The explanation is simple. This is a volunteer project, for a bug to get fixed
a volunteer has to find it interesting. The options are always the same:

1) Fix it yourself - code is readily available;
2) Find a friend/family/colleague to fix it;
3) Pay for a fix;
4) Wait for a volunteer to tackle it.

Most of us fall into category 4 (10's of millions of users, a few dozen really
active developers). We have a few thousand open issues, plus of course
volunteer developers are doing cool things that they find interesting. So yes,
sometimes a bug can sit "confirmed" (NEW) for a long time - this is the world
of open source.
