The approach we used at work is that bug closure causes the file to get moved to a different directory... so, in effect, there's a database of open bugs and a database of closed bugs. Maybe not optimal, but simple to implement. The biggest feature-creeps are that we take serious advantage of Apache's server-side include features, which cuts down drastically on the amount of file-whacking in the database... and we don't batch processing, we do each request as it arrives. The combination allow us to have near-instant gratification on bug status changes showing up on the web pages, without driving the resource requirements on the server way up.
