#8629: BP_DEFAULT_COMPENENT is not honoured for picking a profile landing page

 I'm not using the custom front page and want a default tab to be opened
 when a site visitor lands on /members/[member-name] I've tried setting
 BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT and used the "profile" value as a default. This
 doesn't work, neither does setting any other valid value.
 I've tracked through the source code and this should be applied in
 /bp-members/classes/class-bp-members-component.php
 Line 302 for the function setup_canonical_stack()
 Following that through I can see it fails on line 321
 bp_is_active($default_component)

 This function is in /bp-core/bp-core-template.php line 2084
 and has two arguments, if the second isn't specified then it seems it will
 never return anything. So in this case by calling bp_is_active without a
 second argument then it will always fail and not apply the default
 component.

 I'm not sure if this should be corrected by changing the call inside the
 setup_canonical_stack function and adding a second argument or should the
 handling change in the bp_is_active function?
