Comment:

 Ok for the page problem it looks like wp_dropdown_pages() is being called
 now instead of using parent_dropdown() and some surrounding code. If
 parent_dropdown is being depreciated, then wp_dropdown_pages() is going to
 need to be passed the excluded pages (which will have to be determined
 before calling it). It looks like even though it is supposed to be passed
 $post, $post ends up being NULL (so it does not even select the current
 parent page if there is one).

 I'm opening a new ticket for a similar problem with categories as I found
 the problem exists in 2.6.1.
