  > Hmm, currently I can't reproduce either.

It amuses me to see the verb "reproduce" used intransitively in this
context, because what that means is that you are unable to produce
offspring.  I don't think that's what you meant ;-).

With a bug, the thing to say is "I can't reproduce it."

Of course, people understand anyway.
