Seems there may be a bit of confusion regarding what is going on here.
Maybe another explanation will help:

I note that a compilation album has been split up into individual
artists, rather than being grouped under Various Artists. I right click
one of the albums, and click 'Show Under Various Artists'.

All the tracks in that  album _of the artist selected_ now appear under
Various Artists. All other tracks remain under the individual artists.

So I go to each of the artists, click 'Show Under Various Artists' for
the album.

The result is that we have as many duplicate listings of the compilation
under Various Artists as there were artists when the album was split up
into artists. All of these duplicate albums contain all of the tracks in
the album.

If I Rescan Collection, then the compilation returns to its original
state, with the compilation distributed over many artists.

(All of this depending, I hypothesize, as per my workaround, on the
folder in which the tracks are located. If all of the tracks are located
in the same folder, everything works as it should. If not, the above
situation occurs.)
