[meta] how to fix wrong status in bug database

[Arvid Grøtting]

Hi,

if a bug has been too hastily marked as a duplicate in the bug database, how
does it get its status changed?

Do I re-report the bug?  Nag someone in private email?  Give up on that bug? 
Give up on bug reporting altogether?

I'd suggest commenting on the status change here, but someone already beat me to
that with no effect.  I'd also suggest commenting in the bug handling system,
but I've tried that to no effect.

(Yes, I'm talking about #289, which although superficially related isn't a
duplicate of #74, and which makes the later 2.11 versions unusable for anyone
with both grace notes and multi-voice staffs.  Still broken in 2.11.19,
workaround from #74 doesn't.  But that's just a manifestation of a meta-problem:
how to prevent bug reports from getting lost and bug reporters from giving up.)
