To reproduce:

1. put something in the moderation queue with a specific taxonomy.
2. moderate it until it passes the limit and is "promoted"
3. check it's taxonomy -- it has reset to '0' and its corresponding database entry is lost.

Is this a bug with my specific installation of drupal or is it an actual bug?

Hello again,

I've traced this problem and it seems to mostly originate somewhere within node.module or taxonomy.module, possibly with the node_save function in node.module -- which only seems to be used by queue.module and bloggerapi.module, and image module, which would suggest that its something that could be overlooked for quite a while.

When i try to print out the contents of $node->taxonomy from queue.module, node.module, and taxonomy.module, I get nothing. I'm new to PHP, so I'm not an expert, but I'm not new to programming. Anyway, this is probably a trivial bug for those In The Know to fix :)

It is related to these bug reports:

The problem is that node_save() will overwrite the existing taxonomy terms if you don't attach them to the $node object. Needs fixing.
