blogapi.module can create (or attempt to..) any node type in 4.6, but
the code to create a new node still assumes the node will be of type
'blog'. In addition, it's still looking for individual variables rather
than the arrays that are stored in 4.6. 


It initializes those fields with calls like


variable_get('node_promote_blog', 1);
This will always return 1 unless you've upgraded to 4.6 from a previous
version and set your blog nodes not to publish by default, and it will
use that value for every type of node.


This patch retrieves the array (and "comment_$node->type") variable for
the appropriate node type and assigns the values accordingly.
