If the bug was still present in the current branch (4.2) it would make sense
to ask developers to cherry pick the fix from the 4.3 branch and apply it to
the 4.2 (soon-to-be-named-Stable) branch.

So the answer is: if the problem is detected as fixed on a newer release of
the *same* branch then there is no point in reporting. If it is fixed on an
unstable or Fresh release from a *newer* branch but it's broken on the
Stable branch then it should be reported.

Hope this helps (and that the English is good enough...)

Cheers,
Pedro
