#4637: get_post_comments_feed_link() does not work on Pages with default
permalinks

 When you use the classic template, or any template that calls the
 comments_rss_link function on Pages, the resulting link is incorrect if
 you are using default permalinks.

 In get_post_comments_feed_link() there's this code:
 {{{
 if ( '' != get_option('permalink_structure') ) {
 ...
 } else {
         $url = get_option('home') . "/?feed=$feed&p=$id";
 }
 }}}

 The "p=$id" is incorrect for Pages, that needs to be "page_id=$id". The
 link using p= results in a 404 page from Wordpress, since it's specifying
 a Post which does not exist (it's a Page).

 Possible solutions:
  * Fix the get_post_comments_feed_link() to work for pages too.
  * Change the query mechanism to allow p=ID to pull up pages as well.

 Reproduction:
  * Create a new clean Wordpress blog, switch to the classic template.
  * Make a Page.
  * Try the RSS link at the bottom of that Page.

 Problem exists in 2.2.1 and trunk.
