3.51 is not available yet - the phrase "this has been fixed a long time ago in
3.5.1" should probably read "this is a known bug and will be fixed in 3.5.1"

A good question - the answer IMHO is that the developers' priority is focused on
coding, rather than keeping the public bug-list up to date. In general, you'll
find this newsgroup a better place to stay informed of developments rather than
the website
