To my knowledge, this bug has never been reported (correct me if I'm wrong).

Thanks for sharing this J-F, and thanks also to Mike for finding and relaying the details!

It's amazing this was never found, or at least not reported, in > 30 years. Although a somewhat obscure procedure is needed to uncover it, it seems that someone may have tried this along the way; perhaps it was found and reported to HP, but never publicly acknowledged, and certainly not sufficient to warrant another ROM update.
