The is the unfortunate consequence of putting a bug from two different 
projects in the same report.  Ideally the D1 portion would be WONTFIX, and 
the D2 part would be WORKSFORME/FIXED/etc.

Since we can't actually do that, I think we should just discard the D1 
information and give it the appropriate status for D2.  After all, we're not 
going to fix the bug for 2.061 or 2.062 or 2.063 etc either, but we won't 
mark it WONTFIX because of that.
