I pretty much agree with you, it is unacceptable. But here's the reality of the situation: There aren't many of these cars out there, it's not a mass-market vehicle, so it just isn't going to get the kind of attention (in terms of media, or from the manufacturer) that a Camry or Accord would get. (If this sort of thing happened with one of those cars, you can bet it would be in the news.) So in some sense, we'll likely be on our own for a significant amount of time (possibly the whole time we own the car) to deal with the issue, which remember, neither Toyota or Subaru really acknowledges that it's a problem (in the sense that it causes damage to the engine, fuel pump, etc).
Seriously though, check that site for some non-ethanol gas and if there is some remotely nearby, go get some, you'll be happy you did. I've found that not only are the crickets gone, but the car runs SO much nicer - it just sounds happier with 92 non-ethanol gas.
