Description Jonathan Wakely 2010-11-08 12:49:43 UTC 
Changing Status to WAITING causes the bug to be confirmed, as can be seen by the first two changes in 
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_activity.cgi?id=45399

I expect WAITING state to be independent of whether it's been confirmed, so that the sequence UNCONFIRMED->WAITING->UNCONFIRMED doesn't affect whether the bug has been confirmed.
Comment 1 Frédéric Buclin 2010-11-15 18:57:22 UTC 
Bugzilla has a single unconfirmed state, named.... UNCONFIRMED. All other open states confirm the bug. That's so by design, and definitely not something we are going to change.
