a) The extension http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmAccount (currently identifying itself as Confirm user accounts (Version 1.47) seems to be broken in combination with newest MW 1.16. The error appears only when actually confirming an account request, selecting accept radio button and clicking confirm button.
Error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method User::encodeOptions() in /usr/share/mediawiki/phase3/includes/User.php on line 2482
b) although hosted on SVN, the extension is not in the Component list in Bugzilla, please correct as well.
Version: 1.16.x
Severity: critical
