The time it takes to respond to a bug report depends on any number of factors, including (but not limited to) the maintainer's understanding of the Emacs area where the bug happens, the time it takes to reproduce the problem, the amount of free time (holidays etc.), you name it. In this case, I'm guessing that it took about a few seconds to find out that there's no such code anywhere in Emacs.

And I, for my part, would have closed the mistaken report sooner than within 6 minutes, if I had had a bug number to close. As soon as I posted the bug report I realized my mistake, but I had to wait until the bug showed up at http://debbugs.gnu.org/ to get the number. I specifically went to that site instead of waiting for the confirmation mail with the bug number (which takes even longer), in order to shorten the time before closing.
