Hotfix 946517 and 941422, Where did my FrontPage Extensions Go!?

So I installed these hotfixes on my SharePoint Test Box: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/941422 and http://support.microsoft.com/?id=946517.  Everything seemed to check out fine.  There were no weird errors on my box anymore (i.e. 6398, 6482, and 7076).  I assumed there would be no problem on my production box.  I got onto the production box and followed the instructions for installing the hotfixes, including a restart on the Windows Server Hotfix and running the Configuration Wizard for SharePoint on the WSS Hotfix.  I checked SharePoint and Central Administration to see if they were running and everything checked out so far.  I e-mailed my bosses and told them to run a battery of tests as usual to see if they could break anything.  When I came into work today I decided to look at a workflow in SharePoint Designer and I could not open a workflow.  I was told that "Front Page Extensions 2002 were disabled".  I checked both servers to see if they had the same problem and realized that only production was affected.  So I re-installed FrontPage Extensions 2002 and everything worked A-OK.  If anyone is working with these hotfixes please be aware that one or both may uninstall FrontPage Extensions.  Remember to check and reinstall the extensions after you run the configuration wizard.
