In my disagreement with the powers-that-be of the Wordpress creators and coders, I expressed the need for Trackbacks to take precedence over Pingbacks. They marked my trac ticket as WONTFIX so I did it myself.
I simply rearranged the order in which the pings are sent putting trackbacks before pingbacks:
<?phprequire_once(’../wp-config.php’);// Do Enclosures
