Comment:

 Jamie Holly (intoxination) provided more information to the wp-hackeres
 mailing list. Thank you!

 It still exists

 in 2.2. Basically if you have a post that contains nested quotes it will
 remove the nesting once it runs through balanceTags. For example this:

 {{{
 Hey Now

 <blockquote>Your
 <blockquote>An</blockquote>
 All</blockquote>
 Star
 }}}

 Running through balanceTags changes to this:

 {{{
 <p>Hey Now</p>
 <blockquote><p>Your</p>
 </blockquote>
 <blockquote><p>An</p>
 </blockquote>
 <p>All</p>
 <p>Star</p>
 }}}

 I manually applied the patch attached to the ticket to 2.2 and it did fix
 it.

 The problem occurs when saving a post with "WordPress should correct
 invalidly nested XHTML automatically" checked. Since the content goes
 through the balanceTags filter on content_save_pre it only applies at
 save/publish time.
