Then why bother manually closing them? This looks like simple mechanical work. <em>If</em> we have a consensus of this, just close such pre-8 era bugs with a script at once, eh? But I personaly don't think this is right to blindly close old bug despite of period when nobody cared of it. I have a load of my own PRs (and no time to work on some of them yet) that are pretty valid still, f.e. bin/61355 (4.9-STABLE era) to start from.
