Please describe, what you mean with "don't work".
Can you give some testcase? This would help us to test what your talking about. :-)

I will try, but my English is not so good...
I have two roles R1 and R2.
I have for R1 and tracker "Bug" start date is requiered for state "New".
When I apply for user "test" role R1 everything are working.
But when I add for user "test role R2 in the same project permissions are not working.
Please take a look in attachments.

I figured by try an error what would be the ultimate behavior of the particular field when multiple roles are at play:
- Required: the field will be FORCED to be required only if ALL ROLES requires it.
- Read-only: the field will be FORCED to be read only if ALL ROLES makes it read-only.
If the field id NOT REQUIRED for any role - (e.g. as reporter role don't have to fill target-version) it will not force you to be REQUIRED.
If the field is NOT READ_ONLY for any role - (e.g. as a manager role I can see the 'Resolution' and update it) it will not force you to be READ_ONLY.
So in general multiple roles makes it 'more permissive'.
