 Replying to [comment:8 johncoswell]:
 > I made that change to a local copy of WP 2.8.4 and it worked as
 expected. The meta data was properly stored in the database as a
 serialized string.

 Thank you for the sample file.

 I have included it as test data into the wordpress-tests repository and
 started writing some unit tests against it for this issue.
