OMG YES. Projects that get annoyed at folks who report bugs make me get my rageface on.
The bugs are there, whether we've found them or not. At least once we've found them, we can do something about them. =)
And by all means, don't hesitate to speak up if something seems awry, even if you think someone else might have noticed it. They might not have! In software development as a whole, most bugs that get past QA are failures of imagination, not of effort. It's not that people aren't trying hard enough to find the bugs -- they are -- but that nobody managed to come up with the particular combination of things that triggers the bug.
