 dbx_page_sidebar and dbx_page_advanced were deprecated in 2.5 without
 warning or documentation in [6665], and without being moved to
 deprecated.php. I presume this is an error. dbx_post_sidebar and
 dbx_post_advanced were retained, despite the move to do_meta_boxes. This
 obviously breaks plug-ins needlessly.

 Adding <?php do_action('dbx_page_sidebar'); ?> below line 185, and <?php
 do_action('dbx_page_advanced'); ?> below line 285 (both in edit-page-
 form.php) seems to fix it. But I'm not a programmer.
