A buffer overflow that results in a vulnerability is seen as a bug by
most programmers.
Whether not protecting against a buffer overflow in a program that
gets only input from a trusted source and does not do anything
critical is a bug is up for the programmer and the user to decide
(it's certainly not a mark of a top-quality program). They often are
considered bugs when they happen, whereas a left-shift of a negative
number that is compiled as expected (as left shift) is very rarely
considered a bug by the programmer or the user.
