In Version 6 a new alternative form for specifying FrameTicks was introduced 
but AbsoluteOptions does not recognize them.
Here is the original style that works fine:
plota = Plot[5 Sin[x], {x, 0, 15},
  Frame -> True,
  FrameTicks -> {Automatic, Automatic, None, None}]
Short[AbsoluteOptions[plota, FrameTicks], 5]
Here is the new style that AbsoluteOptions does not recognize:
plotb = Plot[5 Sin[x], {x, 0, 15},
  Frame -> True,
  FrameTicks -> {{Automatic, None}, {Automatic, None}}]
Short[AbsoluteOptions[plotb, FrameTicks], 5]
gives errors and the incorrect FrameTicks.
