I've set up several CCK auto-complete taxonomy fields within one content type. When I enter one term to one field and save the node, it creates two identical term entries. Each time I re-save the node, it generates two more term entries in the the vocabulary.

I am having the same issue. Tracking.

Oddly, this issue occurs on one development site, but not on a different, mostly-identically configured development site with the exact same content type. I vaguely remember encountering this issue once before but I can't remember what the solution was.

There's a similar issue at http://drupal.org/node/171398, but the naming bit does not seem to apply in my case.

Update: Found this issue.

http://drupal.org/node/202039

This would seem to be my problem; one major difference between my sites is the fact that the one with the doubling uses TAC for access control on some content types.

same issue here.
Taxonomy Access disabled, taxonomy has not the same name as the field.
patching the module to hide the taxonomy as in http://drupal.org/node/166873 is not an option to me.

This is a duplicate of #202039: Content Taxonomy Autocomplete terms are created twice if role does not have "create" privs for the vocab.
