Hello there,

In "admin/settings/user", choose "Visitors can create accounts but administrator approval is required" for "Public registrations". Now, when somebody creates a new account, Drupal automatically changes the status to "active" without any administrator approval.

This simple patch fixes the issue; however, I think we need to create a series of define() statements for user_register options. I suspect this bug came into place because someone saw "== 1" and thought it was silly, not realizing that 2 was a valid option.

Tested this patch by first doing a normal HEAD user creation with administration set to requiring approval. Account was set to active, no approval required. After applying this patch, and creating another user, approval was required, patch works properly! +1
