[Pkg-dkms-maint] Bug#637737: #630772 and #637737 Look Distinct

[Elliott Mitchell]

Looking at bugs #630772 and #637737, even though a number of people have
suggested they are one bug, they look pretty clearly distinct to me.

#630772 is some variables being uninitialized in
/usr/share/perl5/Debconf/ConfModule.pm, this may be a failure in dkms,
but could potentially be a bug in debconf.  If this was in debconf, it
may already be fixed.

Meanwhile #637737 is very much an issue of attempting to write to stdout
after it has been closed and the bug is *definitely* in /usr/sbin/dkms.

Unsurprisingly, I'm seeing bug #637737 occur, but *not* #630772.  I
suspect one or both bugs should be promoted to important severity given
the number of people seeing these occur.
