Comment (by chipbennett):

 Replying to [comment:5 Frumph]:
 > if the posts page and the root document (landing page in this case) both
 show as is_home() that, in itself could be construed as wrong behavior.

 But how do you get that to happen? How does WordPress recognize a static
 page as "landing page", unless `get_option( 'page_on_front' )` is set?

 Can you provide a list of steps to recreate the issue?
