With Mathematica 7 on Mac OS X Leopard

In[1]:= Table[Series[JacobiDN[x, m], {x, 0, n}], {n, 0, 4}]]

Out[1]= {SeriesData[x, 0, {EllipticDump`JacobiSum}, 0, 1, 1],
SeriesData[
x, 0, {EllipticDump`JacobiSum}, 0, 2, 1], SeriesData[
x, 0, {1, 0, Rational[-1, 2] m}, 0, 3, 1], SeriesData[
x, 0, {1, 0, Rational[-1, 2] m}, 0, 4, 1], SeriesData[
x, 0, {1, 0, Rational[-1, 2] m, 0, Rational[1, 24] (4 m + m^2)}, 0,
5, 1]}

Why Mathematica can't give a meaningfull answer for n=0 and n=1, but can for
n>1?
(Same problem with JacobiSN and JacobiCN)

Here's the result from version 5.2

In[4]:=$Version
Out[4]="5.2 for Mac OS X x86 (32-bit) (February 24, 2006)"

In[3]:=Table[Series[JacobiDN[x, m], {x, 0, n}], {n, 0, 4}]
Out[3]={1, 1, SeriesData[x, 0, {1, 0, -m/2}, 0, 3, 1], SeriesData[x,
0, {1, 0, -m/2}, 0, 4, 1],
SeriesData[x, 0, {1, 0, -m/2, 0, m/6 + m^2/24}, 0, 5, 1]}

It looks OK. So, there is a bug in Mathematica 7.
