Comment(by charris):

 The problem is that the function that was fixed was created as part of the
 NA work/refactoring, is used in a number of places, and has a different
 signature than the 1.6 function it replaced. It may be that it is similar
 enough to the original that the fix can be transferred over, but I'll have
 to walk through the code to check that out.
