query.php, exclude posts by more authors bug

[aesqe]

in latest nightly on lines 2053 - 2054:

$q['author'] = explode('-', $q['author']);
$q['author'] = (string)absint($q['author'][1]);

just removing 'absint' from line 2054 would enable queries like this following one to give expected results (posts where author ids are not 1 or 2):

`query_posts('author=-1,2')`

replacing both lines with something like this:

$q['author'] = str_replace('-', '', $q['author']);

would also allow this input:

`query_posts('author=-1,-2')`

currently, these queries just exclude the author whose ID is first in list.

#16854 has a patch.
