 We have a custom post type for "classes" and we have been using a custom
 taxonomy for "terms" which represent something similar to a "semester" in
 the education system, although "terms" is syntactically correct for this
 use case.

 The taxonomy "terms" works fine, but it seems that somewhere
 "apply_filters" is being called for "get_terms" which then generates these
 warnings:

 PHP Warning:  Missing argument 3 for _post_format_get_terms() in
 /var/www/public_html/wp-includes/post-formats.php on line 221

 I didn't see where "terms" was listed as a 'reserved word' that should not
 be used for taxonomies on the codex - and in all other regards it seems to
 work fine - but it would be nice if this error was not thrown.

 I am attaching the sample code to create the custom taxonomy.
