Comment (by m-kiewitz):

 I'm sorry, but I don't know which Laura Bow bug you are talking about.
 I don't see a script patch for the Sleuth-O-Meter. Several game bugs are
 mentioned in that blog though.
 The blog simply states all the things that are going wrong and how to get
 the top rating in the game. That is all, as far as I can see. It states
 several things that were not well programmed, but it doesn't seem that we
 even try to fix that and it would be a major undertaking to do things like
 these anyway.

 In Laura Bow an Easter egg also gets fixed that was using the wrong
 graphic, but was fixed in other versions by Sierra. We consider that a bug
 too. It gets difficult for these kind of bugs, but at least in that case
 it was fixed by Sierra, so it makes sense for us to fix earlier versions.

 Most script patches for Colonel's Bequest fix lockups/hangs and also a bug
 that rejects a correct copy protection answer.

 There is one bug fix, which fixes an issue, where you can't interact with
 Lilly in act 4 in the DOS version, which was once again fixed in other
 versions by Sierra, so we take that as proof that it is a bug that should
 get fixed.
