If a patron is very interested in a title, they may very well have placed holds
on every biblio they could find, in an effort to get the material as quickly as
possible, so I don't think this scenario can be ignored.

However, given that this patch fixes a profound problem with merge (one that
made it unusable for many libraries), and that the breakage is not immediate,
but rather on hold-fill of the duplicate listing, I think it's safe to mark
this one as Passed QA.

Many other changes to reserves are currently on my list for 3.6; I'd like to
revisit this issue when those changes have been processed, to see if it changes
the landscape.  In the meantime, folks will need to be made aware of this
possibility, and that a manual check of the holds priority list will be
required to scan for any double entries.
