Something Weird Going on in 0.7.6

I noticed the other day since upgrading to 0.7.6 (it might have happend before then but I recently caught it) when I did an author sort, about 8 of the books had the author first and last name reversed from what I had originally set it at (last name first). I had to go back in and correct those entries. The only common denominator was all the changed books had multiple authors. Has anyone else run into this? Any guesses what caused it?

Also, sorts are taking much longer than they used to. Even though I have only 151 books in calibre, sorts are taking 10 seconds. They used to take on a couple of seconds. I shudder to think what it will be like when I get over a thousand books in there.

Post edit: The Author sort in the left hand panel is jacked up. In past versions, I had to make both of the author fields show last name first so the left panel would sort the authors by last name in the left panel. Now it sorts by first name or middle initial. When the heck did that change?

Post post edit: After some further digging, I've found someone fixed the left panel author sort so now I have to go through and unfix my fix (last name first in both author fields) on every damned book I have in Calibre. It's nice the author sort got fixed but I preferred having the last name first on screen. And I'm not happy about having to redo all my books! Thank God it happened before I put more than 151 books in!
