 In `wp_nonce_field()` in `wp-includes/functions.php`, a call is made to
 `wp_referer_field()` with two arguments.  However, `wp_referer_field()`
 only accepts one argument.

 `wp_original_referer_field()` accepts two arguments and is probably what
 was originally intended.

 Refer to r7438 (specifically
 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/7438/trunk/wp-
 includes/functions.php).  Mark added a second argument to
 `wp_original_referer_field()` while also adding the second (and
 technically invalid) argument to the call to `wp_referer_field()` in
 `wp_nonce_field()`.

 This leads me to believe that the `wp_referer_field()` call in question
 was intended to be changed to be a call to the updated
 `wp_original_referer_field()` function.  This is also affirmed by the fact
 that there are no other calls to `wp_referer_field()` in the codebase
 except once in the livejournal importer.

 As such, the attached patch changes the name of the function being called.
