This bug is showing up as open for some reason, despite being fixed in
unstable. I think this was the result of me forcibly merging some open
bugs with it, so this message is just to try to get its state fixed up
again.
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=550704#44 for the
original closing message, which is still valid.
