The quality of Wesley's bug reports are astonishing. I will bookmark this one and point those that post "it does not work" to it.

In response to that totally off-topic comment... ;)

If Drupal doesn't already have bug reporting guidelines, it might be a better idea to write some up instead. Mozilla's Bug Writing Guidelines are reasonably well written. They're mozilla-specific, but might make a good template for a Drupal version.

If low-quality bug reports are a problem, another simple idea that you might try is to pre-populate the description field with an empty template. Maybe something like:

Steps to reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Behavior:

Expected Behavior:

Version of PHP:

Version of Database:

In any case, I suggest that nobody else gets to follow up on this topic here, lest people get confused and forget about the bug. =)

taxonomy_nodeapi() is supposed to load the terms ...

function taxonomy_nodeapi($node, $op, $arg = 0) {
  switch ($op) {
    case 'load':
     $output['taxonomy'] = taxonomy_node_get_terms($node->nid);
     ...
