7.7.1.9 code seems to have removed 11r capability when using WPA3-Personal (SAE)

On my 7532 AP, running 7.7.1.9 code, the authentication-type sae-psk command (used for WPA3-Transition Mode) no longer works when fast-bss-transition is enabled. It will not allow you to commit the config and throws an error. This was working in previous versions of code. Below is my config. Any ideas as to whether this is just a bug? When I change it to authentication-type (which is just WPA2-Personal), then it works fine.

wlan wlan1
ssid WirelessAdjuster
vlan 1
bridging-mode local
encryption-type ccmp
authentication-type sae-psk
broadcast-ssid
answer-broadcast-probes
no multi-band-operation
protected-mgmt-frames mandatory
no radio-resource-measurement
no radio-resource-measurement channel-report
fast-bss-transition
fast-bss-transition over-ds
no 802.11v bss-transition
wpa-wpa2 psk 0 password123

Fast roaming was never supported on the AP75xx and AP76xx when using WPA3-sae, so you had before fast roaming on devices connecting with WPA2-PSK on this WLAN ?

Using 7.7.1.4 code on the AP7532:

wlan wlan1
ssid WirelessAdjuster
vlan 1
bridging-mode local
encryption-type ccmp
authentication-type sae-psk
protected-mgmt-frames mandatory
no radio-resource-measurement
no radio-resource-measurement channel-report
fast-bss-transition
no 802.11v bss-transition
wpa-wpa2 psk 0 heisrisen
wing-extensions ap-attributes-information
wing-extensions ap-attributes-information include-hostname
!

This configuration is accepted when I type commit and hit <enter>.

Using 7.7.1.9 code on the AP7532, using the same configuration gives this error:

% Error: Commit failed for the following reason:

[wlan 'wlan1'] SAE authentication doesn't support Fast Bss Transition

Why does it work on 7.7.1.4, but not on 7.7.1.9?

Thanks!
