The best place I can find is:
http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter/index.html

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way to query existing
reports... If there is, I can't find it.

Also, I can't help but wonder why Apple/DarwinTeam handle integer
division by zero this way. There must be a reason, which makes me
think that "[considering] this Apple's problem" might not work out for
postgres in the end.
