11825,"wp_create_category() in Taxonomy Administration API ignoring the ""parent"" ID param",thetoine,,"http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-admin/includes/taxonomy.php#L51

Function is checking if the category exist, but without sending the ""parent"" categoryID parameter :

if ( $id = category_exists($cat_name) )

Should be :

if ( $id = category_exists($cat_name, $parent) )

The code works fine unless 2 sub-categories shares the same name.
