I'm getting inconsistent values in the "following" field of the result from /statuses/friends.json. This used to work but it started to break down a few days ago.
Here's a sample output for an authenticated call for the user navgle [0] => Array ( [notifications] => [description] => [utc_offset] => 32400 [favourites_count] => 1 [profile_sidebar_fill_color] => e0ff92 [profile_image_url] => http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_images/118094065/70_normal.jpg [following] => 2 [statuses_count] => 6 [profile_sidebar_border_color] => 87bc44 [followers_count] => 11 [profile_background_tile] => [url] => http://ymha.wordpress.com [screen_name] => ymha [name] => Young Mok Ha [friends_count] => 37 [protected] => [status] => Array ( [in_reply_to_user_id] => [text] => 어제는 회사에서 워크샵을 다녀왔습니다 [favorited] => [in_reply_to_screen_name] => [created_at] => Sat Apr 11 01:13:48 +0000 2009 [truncated] => [id] => 1494364130 [in_reply_to_status_id] => [source] => web ) [profile_background_color] => 9ae4e8 [profile_background_image_url] => http://static.twitter.com/images/themes/theme1/bg.gif [created_at] => Wed Apr 01 07:35:13 +0000 2009 [profile_text_color] => 000000 [location] => seoul [id] => 28068985 [time_zone] => Seoul [profile_link_color] => 0000ff ) [1] => Array ( [profile_background_image_url] => http://static.twitter.com/images/themes/theme1/bg.gif [profile_sidebar_fill_color] => e0ff92 [screen_name] => onlinsystem__ [statuses_count] => 0 [profile_sidebar_border_color] => 87bc44 [location] => [profile_background_tile] => [utc_offset] => [created_at] => Mon Apr 20 00:27:00 +0000 2009 [name] => intmktr [profile_background_color] => 9ae4e8 [followers_count] => 8 [protected] => [description] => [following] => 0 [friends_count] => 961 [profile_text_color] => 000000 [notifications] => [favourites_count] => 0 [profile_link_color] => 0000ff [profile_image_url] => http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_images/147264030/675753_normal.jpg [id] => 33353324 [time_zone] => [url] => http://dgfshfsjsj ) [2] => Array ( [statuses_count] => 3606 [description] => Father of 3 * Interested In * Health * Fitness * Outdoors * Social Media * Books * Blogging * Enjoying the spring weather [profile_background_tile] => [utc_offset] => -21600 [profile_text_color] => 000000 [following] => 0 [profile_link_color] => 0000ff [profile_image_url] => http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_images/59173692/WILSON_062_normal.jpg [profile_background_image_url] => http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_background_images/4061967/Ronnie_Wilson.jpg [url] => [name] => Ronnie [profile_sidebar_fill_color] => 6E93CA [protected] => [screen_name] => ronniewilson [status] => Array ( [in_reply_to_status_id] => [in_reply_to_user_id] => [text] => Thanks to all who are wishing me a Happy Sunday, I'm sure to make the best of it, Don't forget to share a smile with someone today :) [favorited] => [in_reply_to_screen_name] => [truncated] => [id] => 1558769587 [source] => web [created_at] => Sun Apr 19 16:21:05 +0000 2009 ) [time_zone] => Central Time (US & Canada) [profile_sidebar_border_color] => C9D2BD [followers_count] => 64755 [notifications] => [favourites_count] => 50 [friends_count] => 68179 [location] => Kentucky [id] => 16061242 [created_at] => Sun Aug 31 02:21:11 +0000 2008 [profile_background_color] => BDEDFF ) [3] => Array ( [description] => Manufacturing/ Product Development/ Quality Systems/ Supply Management professional seeking Renewable/ Alternative Energy employment opportunities.

If I'm getting a list of my friends, it means the authenticating user is following them and the following should be set to 1 for all the results. If I make the call to /statuses/followers.json I get the same inconsistent set of following fields. Even followers who I am following are to 0 and I also get weird values. Could someone please fix this?
