Comment:

 Comments awaiting moderation are only displayed to their authors: [[BR]]
 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.4.2/wp-includes/comment-
 template.php#L885

 If comment author is logged in, then `$user_ID` is passed, and comments
 from moderation queue are still displayed (since [5238]), regardless of
 whether `'author'` field is disabled or not.

 If comment author is not logged in and `'author'` field is disabled, then
 `$comment_author` is empty, and comments from moderation queue are not
 retrieved.

 This sounds like expected behaviour, I don't see a bug here.
