I, for one, do not appreciate this, and furthermore, dont think its the 
slightest bit funny......I doubt the folks at MIT will think its funny either.
If you're going to submit a bug report to the with a sample fix, then INCLUDE A
SAMPLE FIX, not some stupid remark because you cant figure out how to fix it.

If you think X is bad on Apollo's, just try to run it on a Sun with 4 MB of
memory...You'll get lots of work done.....You know things a bad when X runs 
faster than SunView/Suntools (whatever it's called) on a Sun. (This is the case
for the 386i, and almost for the 3/60 !!)
