Bug Description

If you look at:

  https://launchpad.net/products/launchpad/+bug/3436

you'll notice (if you have permission to access that screen) that bug #3438, a private bug, is marked as a dup of #3436, a public bug.

We've received reports of users (e.g. sivang) being forbidden from accessing the screen for bug #3436, which seems likely due to the fact that the private bug was marked as a dup of it, and is causing permission problems on rendering.

The page for bug #3436 should probably render as normal, showing that #3438 is a dup.
