Yes, this defect is still present with linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24, package version 2.6.24.2-2.8 I guess updating the nvidia-glx-new package with the (now stable) driver version 169.07. nVidia claims that the bug in question has been fixed in this version. See http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=104706 for the release announcement.
