Comment (by ryan):

 Avoids calling init() from parse_query() and stomping query vars that have
 been set().  query() now handles init() and query/query_vars setup. The
 $query arg to parse_query() is now optional. It is never passed by core
 code and could probably be gotten rid of, but it is still handled in case
 a plugin is calling it directly for whatever mysterious reason.

 Note that using the set(), get_posts() style requires running init()
 yourself if you want to do another query with the same query object . This
 was true in 3.0 as well.
