    For clarity, the problem was originally reported here -

    I'm more surprised this survived all the testing that was done on 2008. Seriously, in all the automated tests that were run nightly for months, was there no test case for upgrading under non-standard conditions (like the sa renamed)?

    We can't even make the excuse that is was old code that crept into the upgrade, as the code that actually breaks (as opposed to the 4 places it's hardcoded that doesn't break) was on the creation of a job to clean out history of the policy-based management. Not exactly a 2005 feature.
