Description

There seems to be an issue with the Antibot not working, It asks to type the code backwards but always says what you type doesn't match.
To reproduce, enable user registration and try to register.

I've done some debugging and haven't been able to figure out how to fix it. In Word.php in Zend/Captcha/ the getWord() function doesn't seem to be able to grab the "word" variable from the session. (Line 294)

Solution

It was an issue with the dumb captcha.

The new Zend framework dropped a render function for the dumb captcha so had to adjust captchalib accordingly.

Tested after changes and it worked

Workaround
Only work around is to use recaptcha or not use a captcha at all.
