Given the results of dedup.d.n expected something like this. :-(

In this case I suggest to leave this bug open, because chances are that
this can be solved.

I added the following lines to data/embedded-code-copies in revision
23222:

+openacs
+       - dotlrn <unfixed> (modified-embed; bug #718487)

So the useful options for this bug appear to be:
 * downgrade to get it eventually solved
 * close, since we cannot do anything but document it

Please decide and apply what fits best.
