--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 WP_Widget_Recent_Posts in default-widgets.php doesn't work with persistent
 caching enabled.  This is because the function RETURNS the list of recent
 posts retrieved from the cache rather than prints the list of recent posts
 to the screen.  The fix is trivial.  Replace "return" on line 530 with
 "echo".  (A simple patch is attached.)

 Reproducibility instructions.  Enabled persistent caching. (i.e.
 upload/enable a version of object-cache.php which supports your caching
 backend.)  Observe that no output is created for the
 WP_Widget_Recent_Posts widget.
