This sounds like a user-visible bug.  If it was present in a release, you 
should file (and mark as fixed) a report in Bugzilla for it (if one isn't 
already present), add the [BZ #N] notation to the ChangeLog entry and add 
the bug to the list of fixed bugs in NEWS, so that people looking for bugs 
in past releases can find them in Bugzilla and also see when they were 
fixed.

If it's possible to add a testcase for the bug (and there isn't already 
one in the testsuite that was failing before the patch), that's also a 
good idea.
