 `comments_popup_link()` in wp-includes/comment-template.php uses the old-
 style check:

 `'closed' == $post->comment_status && 'closed' == $post->ping_status`

 rather than the modern:

 `!comments_open() && !pings_open()`

 `get_comment_reply_link()` also uses the old-style check for
 comment_status.

 xmlrpc.php also has a place where the old-style check for comment_status
 and ping_status should instead be `comments_open()` and `pings_open()`.
