#6680: Full post RSS feeds can not break at the <!--more--> point

     Type:  defect   |      Status:  new                  
 Priority:  normal   |   Milestone:  2.5.1                
Component:  General  |     Version:  2.5                  
 Severity:  normal   |    Keywords:  RSS summary full text
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 I have my settings to:
 For each article in a feed, show        : Full text

 Every post I have uses <!--more--> as you can see http://osxhelp.com/
 All posts on the main page are truncated where I have specified them to
 be.

 Any RSS feed, whether atom, rss, or rss 2, do not truncate where they
 should.
 The code:
 {{{
 <description><?php the_content_rss('', 0, '',
 get_option('rss_excerpt_length')) ?></description>
 }}}

 This is rather mysterious to me, it calls the_content_rss(), which really
 does not do very much, at least, I do not see anywhere in that function
 that looks for the pattern <!--more-->

 However, the function does nest another call to get_the_content(), which I
 can not seem to mentally parse out what is it up to.  I see the match:
 {{{
 if ( preg_match('/<!--more(.*?)?-->/', $content, $matches) ) {
 }}}
 and in that it stuffs an array of $matches, which has the <!--more--> as
 item 0 and nothing as item 1 in the array.  I see no way at all that this
 can properly work.  I do not know the code well enough to confirm this is
 a bug.
