Comment (by donmhico):

 Thanks for the ticket @archon810. Yeah it's 10 years old now! Hopefully
 this could gain traction soon.

 While @Nikschavan patch works (thanks for the patch!), I don't think
 directly changing the SQL inside `get_posts_by_author_sql()` is the best
 approach since it could lead to unwanted changes to any plugins / themes
 that uses the function.

 In my latest patch,
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/12960/12960.3.diff
 12960.3.diff], I introduced a new parameter `$include_unpublished` which
 if set to `true` would add the SQL that will include `pending`, `future`,
 and `draft` posts.
