	}

	$post = wp_get_single_post($postarr['ID'], ARRAY_A);



	// Escape data pulled from DB.

	$post = add_magic_quotes($post);



	// Passed post category list overwrites existing category list if not empty.

	if ( isset($postarr['post_category']) && is_array($postarr['post_category'])

			 && 0 != count($postarr['post_category']) )

		$post_cats = $postarr['post_category'];

	else

		$post_cats = $post['post_category'];



	// Drafts shouldn't be assigned a date unless explicitly done so by the user

	if ( isset( $post['post_status'] ) && in_array($post['post_status'], array('draft', 'pending', 'auto-draft')) && empty($postarr['edit_date']) &&

			 ('0000-00-00 00:00:00' == $post['post_date_gmt']) )
