Comment (by billerickson):

 Why was this set to invalid? I'm having the same issue.

 My solution has been to save the original post in $original_post, then at
 the bottom of my metabox put setup_postdata( $original_post );

 While this works, it would be much better to be able to use wp_reset_query
 or wp_reset_postdata.

 If this ticket is invalid, what's the recommended approach for restoring
 the query in a metabox?
