Well-spotted! This definitely looks like a mistake. How did you find this? The test appears to have been defective ever since it was introduced almost 10 years ago. At this point, it may be better to simply remove the dead code entirely unless this is known to fix a real problem. Cheers, -- Nick Bowler, Elliptic Technologies (http://www.elliptictech.com/)
