I'm almost certain that this is caused by upgrading of caption
package from v3.0c to v3.0k but I can't tell whether this is a
bug of caption package or aastex and caption package simply don't 
cooperate well.

Perhaps a better workaround might be to copy caption3.sty to
some working directory, modify it and compile a file with
aastex document class only in that directory and a file with
another document class in another directory.

Perhaps we need to clarify the problem more stricly.
