Bluetooth PAN interface missing
After the 10.5.7 update, it seems that I am unable to set up a bluetooth PAN service under the Network System Preferences panel. I am trying to host a PAN on my macbook, so that I can share my internet connection over bluetooth.

I was following the suggestion from JasonHuebel posted on Apr 19, 2008 8:40 AM in the above thread. I deleted the old service since it was broken, but now when I try to recreate it, there is no bluetooth PAN interface at all.
The problem appears very similar to the one reported by Ensilence on Sep 17, 2008 5:25 PM in the same thread, and I was wondering if the same thing happened: In his post, he was mentioning that the 10.5.4 update removed the interface, while the 10.5.5 update reinstated it. Could it be that the 10.5.7 update removed it again?
I have also checked on a new 13' macbook pro running 10.5.7: it is also missing the service and the interface. So I don't think this problem is only on my macbook.
This is very inconvenient. Is there a way to contact Apple officially and file a bug report or at least ask about the situation? (Or are these forums checked by Apple staff?) I am a newbie on the forums, so I have no idea. Or if you know a solution, I would be very grateful.
Thanks,
black macbook, Mac OS X (10.5.7)
