When I see unusual error in code - not only I check related code, but I may run svn blame. There are multiple benefits for it:

1) I can learn something new and what I thought was an error would turn out to be an interesting new coding trick.

2) If it was an error - not only we would fix it, but would also learn not to make such error in the future.

In particular, that person who made that error would learn to avoid it in the future.
