An aggrieved cry often heard as bugs manifest during a regression
test. The {canonical} reply to this assertion is "Then it works just
the same as it did before, doesn't it?" See also {one-line fix}. This
is also heard from applications programmers trying to blame an
obvious applications problem on an unrelated systems software change,
for example a divide-by-0 fault after terminals were added to a
network. Usually, their statement is found to be false. Upon close
questioning, they will admit some major restructuring of the program
that shouldn't have broken anything, in their opinion, but which
actually {hosed} the code completely.
