Is there a typical time frame from when a bug is closed/fixed in

Nope.
In particular, I'm curious about a bug I opened against ftp, and
provided a fix for...
If interested, see

This was closed as CURRENTRELEASE, but it appears the RH engineer chose that
by mistake -- it's actually fixed in the development tree, not an update to
the current release, so either NEXTRELEASE or RAWHIDE would have been
correct.
I'm going to go ahead and change the resolution to RAWHIDE. However, if you
believe this is an issue which really deserves an FC5 errata, you should
reopen with a comment to that effect.
Thanks.... I reopened it asking if it could be released as an FC5
update.... it's not critical to me at this point, I've already worked
around the issue with another solution. But, since there are no special
requirements/dependencies for this fix, I don't see why it should wait
until FC6 before being distributed. I don't necessarily expect it to be
retrofitted to FC4,3,2 etc, but FC5 is "current" and I'd rather see
fixes sooner than later. :-)
