Comment (by valendesigns):

 Hooray, I'm confident I have a solution!

 However, I want to test it rigorously before I upload it this time. The
 previous fix was OK in theory, but it didn't work in practice. This time
 around I created a `pre_get_posts` filter that solves the issue for this
 and all the other associated tickets without changing the permalinks, so
 no backwards compatibility concerns or broken tests.

 I'll do a bit more testing and upload the patch in the next day or so. In
 the meantime I need to know how to create a unit test post that has an ID
 above 1k, so I can test for one of the known `year` permalink conflicts.
 Anyone have suggestions or tricks that might be useful in artificially
 inflating the post ID without actually creating that many posts?
