Adam Lear ♦ claimed that this bug was fixed yesterday, and it seems to still persist. Someone suggested that the newer post be a duplication, but I don't agree with that. I know this is a rare uncommon case, yet I'm curious about the community's idea.

I agree with Shadow Wizard's comment; ping the relevant Stack Overflow developer/employee who indicated that the bug has been solved, but only if it's reasonably 'fresh'.
