THE MOLITOR on "Publish scheduled/future posts in 3.5"

Hi there,

I'm using the following code in my functions.php file that sets posts with a future publish date to the "published" status (instead of "scheduled").

Everything worked perfect until updating to WordPress 3.5. Does anybody know why?...

function setup_future_hook() {
 // Replace native future_post function with replacement
 remove_action('future_post', '_future_post_hook');
 add_action('future_post', 'publish_future_post_now');
}

function publish_future_post_now($id) {
 // Set new post's post_status to "publish" rather than "future."
 wp_publish_post($id);
}

add_action('init', 'setup_future_hook');
