This is a game for the whole family! We don't care how much progress you make on each ticket, just as long as someone has taken a look and moved the ticket forward in some way. For example, you might check for duplicates, update the metadata, ask for more information from the submitter, try to reproduce the bug against the latest version of GHC.
To claim a ticket all you have to do is remove it from the list on the wiki. Full instructions are here
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/BugSweep
including a list of suggestions for ways to make progress on a ticket.
I've taken a look at a ticket and I think it should be closed as invalid, but I hesitate to make that decision on behalf of the GHC developers. What should I do in these circumstances, just draw it to your attention? I have added a comment to the ticket explaining why. http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/29 is the ticket in question.
