Vote as Helpful returns error if used in both 'all replies' section and 'answer' section

With the addition of the 'Answer' section, which shows the answer, and then repeats the entire thread in a following section 'All replies', it's possible to try to mark a reply as "Helpful" twice.
This only occurs if it's the reply thats marked as an answer. When attempted, the forums display an error dialog with an obtuse error message in it. This error appears non-fatal for other features on the page.
Ideally, when the answer reply is voted as helpful, the duplicate copy should remove the link.

This seems to be fixed now. Please reply if you can repro!
Thanks!

Could be the former (two people voting). We'll see if we can repro.Ed Price (a.k.a User Ed), SQL Server Experience Program Manager (Blog, Twitter, Wiki)
