[mapserver-users] How to set SCALEBAR size and intervals in MapServer CGI >5.0?

Dear MapServer Users,
Prior to MapServer 5.0, I could set the map scalebar size and intervals
using CGI variables named "map_scalebar_size" and
"map_scalebar_intervals". After upgrading to 5.2.0, however, these
variables are no longer recognized; I get an error saying
"loadScalebar(): Unknown identifier". Is it true that we can no longer
reference map settings in this fashion? When I change these variables to
"map_scalebar=size+value+intervals+value" it works, but this no longer
fills in my template variables [map_scalebar_size] and
[map_scalebar_intervals]. If I try using a template variable with
[map_scalebar] instead, the value (e.g.
"size+width+height+intervals+value") doesn't seem to be interpreted by
MapServer since the scalebar settings never get subsequently modified.
What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any insights!
Cheers,
