After upgrade from 1.2.x to 1.3.5: related models aren't loaded automatically anymore?

Hey guys

Yes, it's me again... Cleaning up some dirty codes from my antecessor.

I have a User model that can export some INI data with a getIni()
method. The User model is related to many different models that server
some data for the INI data:

function getIni() {
$data = '';
$data .= 'street='.$this->Location->field('street');
$data .= 'zip='.$this->Location->field('zip');
// etc.
return $data;
}

Now I noticed that every user had the same location street and zip,
although they are not all related to the same location!

So I found out that $this->Location didn't point to the related
location, but to always the same location!

I know that it's no good style to always use field(...), because every
call causes a new DB query, so I will rewrite this stuff to use $this-
>data['User']['Location']['street'] etc. instead (which DOES have the
right data in it, thank god!). So my question is just: why did this
use to work in the past and doesn't anymore in the present? Does it
have to do with $recursive or something?

Thanks,
Josh
