From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]:
workaround
n.
1. A temporary {kluge} used to bypass, mask, or otherwise avoid a {bug} or
{misfeature} in some system. Theoretically, workarounds are always replaced
by {fix}es; in practice, customers often find themselves living with
workarounds for long periods of time. ?The code died on NUL characters in
the input, so I fixed it to interpret them as spaces.? ?That's not a fix,
that's a workaround!?
2. A procedure to be employed by the user in order to do what some
currently non-working feature should do. Hypothetical example: ?Using
META-F7 {crash}es the 4.43 build of Weemax, but as a workaround you can
type CTRL-R, then SHIFT-F5, and delete the remaining {cruft} by hand.?
