 Although {{{wp_list_categories()}}} supports custom taxonomies,
 {{{Walker_Category::start_el()}}} calls {{{get_category()}}} if the
 argument 'current_category' is passed, ignoring the taxonomy argument.

 {{{
 if ( isset($current_category) && $current_category )
         $_current_category = get_category( $current_category );
 }}}

 Minor side effects currently include unnecessary database queries and
 failure to add 'current-cat-parent' class(es).

 Simple fix would be to check for the taxonomy argument, and use
 {{{get_term()}}} instead;

 {{{
 if ( isset($current_category) && $current_category )
         $_current_category = get_term( $current_category, isset($taxonomy)
 ? $taxonomy : 'category' );
 }}}
