Comments Reply Link Appears When Comments Closed

[mithrill]

The comment_reply_link() appears even when comments are closed. Although the reply link does not allow comments to be posted when comments are closed on a post, it would be good from a user experience perspective to not even display the comments reply link when comments are closed.

Can't reproduce in 3.2.1 with Twenty Ten or Twenty Eleven. The Reply link disappears after closing comments. There's a check in get_comment_reply_link():

if ( !comments_open($post->ID) )
	return false;

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm not using a default theme, but the issue didn't appear to be with my theme since it relies on the code comment-template.php. I'll keep digging around to see if I can resolve this.
