I have some of this kind of bugs...

The CC list grows, but that's it. No comments are made. So I leave them
open, till the bugzappers close it after reaching EOL (Maybe if I have
more bugs like this, I'll close them as INSUFFICIENT DATA after some
months of waiting...)

I guess, you can't do more in these cases...
