I just checked a lot of reports of this on errors.u.c; while they
unfortunately don't show the nvidia-common version it's possible to
correlate the updates the user had installed by checking against the
version of jockey-gtk.

All users (who reported the problem 'recently'; after mid-November 2012
or so) I could see had jockey-gtk 0.9.7-0ubuntu7.1 or less. This was an
update pushed out on 2012-08-17 and superseded on 2012-10-03. nvidia-
common's fixed version was released to precise-updates also on
2012-10-03. Thus I think it is pretty safe to assume that users would
have jockey -7.3 if they were to have the fixed nvidia-common.

So, as surprising as this is to me, I conclude (unless new evidence
emerges) that there is a significant class of users who don't regularly
install updates and are thus living with this bug despite it really
being fixed in Precise.
