Agreeing doesn't fix the resource problems. For special packages, it's
obvious.

  http://bugz.fedoraproject.org/kernel
  1374 bugs found

For others, it isn't.

  http://bugz.fedoraproject.org/gftp
  49 bugs found

But the bugzapping EOL script treats all packages equally, afaik. It would
also kill off _the single one_ major crasher ticket for a maintainer's single
package just because nobody replies in bugzilla.
