Comment:

 Attached is a page template for 2012 that demonstrates that wp_reset_query
 does not reset to the original query when the global $wp_query is assigned
 a new WP_Query. This problem is fixed by 22125.diff.

 The bug was introduced in [21792]. Prior to that change query_posts
 returned a reference which replaced the existing $wp_query reference.
 After the change query_posts is returning an object which replaces the
 referenced object.
