In fact, this is what Andrew's so-called "back and forth with the bug
reporter" used to mainly consist of.  Asking the user to try this patch or
that patch, which most of the time were reverts of suspect changes.

Which, surprise surprise, means we were spending lots of time
bisecting things by hand.

We're able to automate this now and it's not a bad thing.
