Which is exactly why patches should go to the mailing lists. The reviewer might
request changes to the patch, so the submitter will be asked to make changes
and re-test the patch to ensure it still works and fixes the problem. The
reviewer doesn't necessarily have access to the right systems to test the patch
themselves. That process of iteratively refining the patch belongs on the
mailing lists, not in bugzilla.
