    If there is a transaction where my wallet holds two of the output addresses, then the Transaction details dialog shows incorrect data.

    The To: for both addresses will show the same address (and label) regardless of which of the two I am viewing.

    Bitcoin-qt, v0.6.3.

    They show the same information, because Transaction details shows the details of the underlying Bitcoin transaction, not the specific sub-transaction (output). This is by design.

    However, it is a bug if the To: only shows one address instead of both.

    Is this still present/relevant?

    Looking at the code in TransactionDesc, it only shows one "To:" address for the first To, even if a transaction has multiple outputs

    https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/qt/transactiondesc.cpp#L111

    So this could indeed be regarded a very minor bug, though it shows all the outputs (along with the amount) later on, so it's not that the information is not there.
