Yes, and no. What we should do is taking them seriously, and look over
the list for *really* serious bugs. That's basically the main purpose.

On the other hand, it makes no sense to postpone a release for fixing
all of them. That's because of "Release Early, Release Often." It's
not uncommon that we gain new contributors right after a big release,
who might just help us with fixing these issues.
