I don't like this patch.  It's a hairy fix.  There must be a better way
to avoid recursion in first place.

Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/node_serialized2x.patch (664 bytes)

node_save() saves a node, then calls insert or update hooks. These hooks
may run functions that, in turn, call node_save().


This all works fine except that if a revision is being created, the
revision gets serialized twice -- once on the original node_save() call
and once on the callback's node_save() call.


The attached two-line patch simply inserts a boolean variable called
rev_serialized to keep track of whether the serialization has already
been done.


I'd like to see cvs and 4.6 patched.


This patch is necessary so I can release actions and workflow for 4.6.
