Just to clear this up so the poor chap doesn't get confused... the 
ticket states that it was resolved in 3028 and not 3048. 3048 has 
nothing to do with adding/updating options.

http://trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3028

If they did redevelop after 3028 it looks like they've been fixed 
(again) in 3052... http://trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3052

In regards to adding features without testing, yes, this is still ALPHA 
software in testing. Things get added, then people check to see if it 
breaks anything. This isn't a "stable" tree that you're running from.

Next time when reporting a bug and you're using an unstable version, 
make sure to note the latest changeset you have so people can figure out 
if its been fixed or if it needs to be fixed.
