Add New Web Part to Web Part Gallery Broken?

I have a site in SharePoint 2010 running in 2007 mode (don't ask me why? ask the business users). It seems there may be a bug when in the web part gallery that does not allow you to add new web parts (in 2007 mode only). I had a look through the page source and there is definitely some issues with the javascript on the "New" button.

Hopefully, we won't be in 2007 mode for too long, so we are just gonna roll with a workaround. Go to following page and you can add web parts to the web part gallery:
