In fact the first message actually tells the reporter to do that:

: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not
: be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still
: like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a
: later version  of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to
: a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

so if they can't do so then that message seems a little suboptimal.
