Comment (by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 dropping this in wp_update_post() works:


 {{{
         // Passed post category list overwrites existing category list if
 not empty.
         if ( isset($postarr['post_category']) &&
 is_array($postarr['post_category'])
                          && 0 != count($postarr['post_category']) )
                 $post_cats = $postarr['post_category'];
         else
                 $post_cats = $post['post_category'];

 }}}

 if the list is empty, it gets caught afterwards and the default category
 gets assigned
