Thank you for letting us know, but please in the future leave the
personal mockery out of your bug reports.  Alan is a volunteer, as we
all are here, working on Emacs on our own free time.  We don't deserve
such attitude, even if (and it's still an if at this stage) we made a
mistake with your previous report, in bug#32854.
