I consistently fix a few of these for every release, as do other developers.

There appear to be a number that have been fixed or overtaken by events over the years, but the bug is still open. Is closing some of these old bugs of any value? If so, how do I pursue this?There are nearly 10,000 still unresolved bugs in Bugzilla, almost half of which are New, and a third Unconfirmed, so I'm sure any effort to help reduce the number is of value and appreciated.That's exactly what prompted me to ask. There's such a vast number of them, it's hard to believe that 9 year old bugs are still of interest.
I do think the backlog is too large and needs a good cleanout and will encourage anyone with an interest to do whatever they can to flush out old bugs.
