Ok, on closer looked, it was reverted correctly inside of the 1.17 branch by the reverter. But then http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki?view=revision&revision=79129 went and re-introduced half the code, leaving things in a wierd state of limbo where parts of the code are from 1.17, parts are from the code meant to be in 1.18, and some of the files are mixed...
I'll take a look at cleaning this up right now. I'll do this by reverting r79129 and merging the revisions it merged more carefully and in smaller batches.
