ignore_sticky_posts in WordPress 3.0.3?

I am using WP 3.0.3 and I would like to exclude sticky posts from my query:

This doesn’t seem to work:

<?php query_posts( 'posts_per_page=9&cat=-1,-2&ignore_sticky_posts=1' );?>

To get JUST the sticky post I use the following:

$sticky = get_option('sticky_posts');
$args = array(
    'posts_per_page' => 1,
    'post__in'  => $sticky
);
query_posts($args);

ignore_sticky_posts was introduced in WordPress 3.1. Before this version, you can use caller_get_posts, which will have the same effect (this option was used when you queried the posts via get_posts(), which uses the same WP_Query class in the background, but should ignore sticky posts). The name was a bit confusing, and thus changed in 3.1.
