The `can_recordAnswers` method of the `WeBWorK::ContentGenerator::GatewayQuiz` package can not call any of the `WeBWorK::ContentGenerator::GatewayQuiz` methods because it is called directly by the `WeBWorK::ContentGenerator::LoginProctor` module without a `WeBWorK::ContentGenerator::GatewayQuiz` object. Attempting to do so will cause an exception. This is a bit annoying as the conditions of the `can_gradeUnsubmittedTest` method (including the conditions of the `can_showProblemGrader` method it calls) must be directly used by the `can_recordAnswers` method. There is no way around that though. This definitely should be considered for a hotfix.
