Pick whichever ticket is most informative or has the most activity and
close the other as a duplicate with a link back to the ticket that is
staying open.

with different symptoms being described.  If the symptoms are
different enough, I won't dupe the bugs but instead will create links
between them and then resolve them all as fixed upon commit.
