This patch will open a denial-of-service exploit, see comment on

Can you explain this comment, please?  I don't see any code disabling
Mollom's eyetests and hearing tests (which are not CAPTCHAs because
they class some humans as computers erroneously).

Please leave this patch in contrib.

Thanks,
