I think you don't need to get into too much headache when deciding how  
to treat bugs which are about to get obsolete. I'd suggest to close  
the old one as DUPLICATE of the new one. That way, anyone reading the  
old one is pointed towards the new one, and the new one deals with  
this issue (among others) just fine.
