Comment (by wiselyfoolish):

 yup this affects empty paragraphs only.

 Current workaround solution is to strip empty paragraph tags from the text
 before running it through wpautop()

 Example:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 $text = '<p>First paragraph</p><p></p><p>Second Actual Paragraph</p>';
 $text = preg_replace('@<p.*?></p>@', '', $text);
 $text = wpautop($text);
 }}}
