#32215: Image hard crop no longer working as expected

 Since I upgraded to 4.2.1, hard cropping of images no longer seems to work
 (resizing always occurs using soft-crop mode, resizing the larger
 dimension first, then cropping the smaller to size). I am regenerating
 them using the regenerate thumbnails plugin (which works fine), and am
 looking at the images directly on the server (FTP) to eliminate the
 possibility that any CSS might be producing strange results. It is a
 custom theme that I built, but I switched the site over to Twenty Fourteen
 to rule out my code and got the same results. I also tried disabling
 plugins, to no avail.

 I am running my production site on the same server (which is running
 3.8.7) and the crop works fine.
