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

etc.

It's strange that sometimes the "following" is set to 0 or some
number.

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?
