Comment (by fgauthier):

 I may be confused, but wp_ajax_replyto_comment is called from the admin ->
 comments console when the admin clicks the reply link of a comment, not a
 post.

 This function allows the admin to reply to a comment and potentially
 approve the comment to which he is replying to.

 It seems to me that we have a comment to check against, not a post.
