No such problem.

So, when changing the browser's Accept-Language HTTP header from "en-us,en;q=0.8,zh-cn;q=0.5,zh;q=0.3" to "en-us,en;q=0.5", that is remove all "zh" related settings, the bug appears.

After opt-out/in, the variant preference will be changed to "zh", whatever you set before.
Comment 3 Roan Kattouw 2009-10-07 22:13:56 UTC 
I managed to reproduce this:
* Set $wgLanguageCode = 'sr'; (would use zh but it throws fatals ATM)
* Go to your preferences
* Set variant (Варијанта) to sr-el
* Submit; prefs form appears in sr-el
* Change gender (Pol) to female (second option) if it was male, or to male (first option) otherwise
* Submit; prefs form appears in sr, variant preference reset to sr

Generalizing this bug, problem in the prefs system rather than in OptIn.

I'm having trouble reproducing. Is this bug still present?
