Oh my.  I have seen the good and the bad on this.

Without disclosing the names of the accused, I would just say that it has a
lot to do with whether the customer has a one-person programming shop and
s/he reports to a non-IS manager, usually the bean-counter.  Such managers
seem to have a hard time grasping the concept of responsibility when their
people modify the code.

I have never had to fight the "war" between the customer and my management.
My personal opinion would be that Ron's manager dodged his responsibility.
