Comment (by redsweater):

 I should have been more explicit about the end-user behavior. With the bug
 in 2.2, users of clients which by default do not set any value for the
 comments or pings status, find that the posts acquire the value of
 whatever an uninitialized variable is in PHP. It seems to be 0 - that is,
 comments and pings are forced to OFF.

 This is frustrating to users who have been used to the behavior of
 comments "just working."
