It looks like the bug may actually be fixed in trusty-security eglibc 2.19-0ubuntu6.6

eglibc (2.19-0ubuntu6.6) trusty-security; urgency=medium

  * SECURITY UPDATE: getaddrinfo writes to random file descriptors under
    high load
    - debian/patches/any/cvs-resolv-reuse-fd.diff: reload file descriptor
      after calling reopen in resolv/res_send.c.
    - CVE-2013-7423

So this bug status is misleading; the issue should be fixed against Trusty I believe.
