Huh. The duplicate bug (1268257) has been updated to this:

Changed in nvidia-graphics-drivers-331-updates (Ubuntu):*assignee*:Moreno
(nenoattila) → nobodyChanged in nvidia-graphics-drivers-331 (Ubuntu):
*status*:Triaged → Incomplete*status*:Incomplete → InvalidChanged in
nvidia-graphics-drivers-331-updates (Ubuntu):*status*:Triaged → Invalid

Because apparently doing this:

$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-331
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-331-uvm

not only fixes the issue, but apparently makes it completely irrelevant.

If plugging in a workaround is enough, after more than a year, to make a
bug "invalid," then wouldn't the same workaround make all of the duplicates
invalid as well?

Just seems like a huge waste of resources to me to ignore the solution to a
bug, and continue looking for other ways to solve a duplicate issue.

Or, perhaps none of the devs let each other know when an issue has been
fixed.
