To test the fix for this, create a simple project that has the following code in app.js:

   var textArea1 = Ti.UI.createTextArea();
   var hasText = textArea1.hasText();
   Ti.API.log('test','textArea1.hasText() = '+hasText);
   
   var textArea2 = Ti.UI.createTextArea({
   	value : 'I am a textarea',
   });
   hasText = textArea2.hasText();
   Ti.API.log('test','textArea2.hasText() = '+hasText);
   
   var textArea3 = Ti.UI.createTextArea({
   	value : '',
   });
   hasText = textArea3.hasText();
   Ti.API.log('test','textArea3.hasText() = '+hasText);
   
   
   var	textField1 = Ti.UI.createTextField();
   hasText = textField1.hasText();
   Ti.API.log('test','textField1.hasText() = '+hasText);
   
   var textField2 = Ti.UI.createTextField({
   	value : 'I am a textfield'
   });
   hasText = textField2.hasText();
   Ti.API.log('test','textField2.hasText() = '+hasText);
   
   var textField3 = Ti.UI.createTextField({
   	value : '',
   });
   hasText = textField3.hasText();
   Ti.API.log('test','textField3.hasText() = '+hasText);

After building and running the project, the log should read:

   I/TiAPI   (  441): [test] textArea1.hasText() = false
   I/TiAPI   (  441): [test] textArea2.hasText() = true
   I/TiAPI   (  441): [test] textArea3.hasText() = false
   I/TiAPI   (  441): [test] textField1.hasText() = false
   I/TiAPI   (  441): [test] textField2.hasText() = true
   I/TiAPI   (  441): [test] textField3.hasText() = false

The test case provided in the comments above causes an exception on iOS and Android

Test case

   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
     backgroundColor: 'white',
     exitOnClose: true,
     fullscreen: false,
     layout: 'vertical',
     title: 'hasText Demo'
   });
   
   var textField = Ti.UI.createTextField({
       color: '#336699',
       backgroundColor:'#eee',
       top: 10, left: 10,
       width: 250, height: 60,
       borderStyle: Ti.UI.INPUT_BORDERSTYLE_ROUNDED
   });
   win.add(textField);
   
   var textArea = Ti.UI.createTextArea({
       borderStyle: Ti.UI.INPUT_BORDERSTYLE_ROUNDED,
       backgroundColor:'#eee',
       color: '#336699',
       top: 10, left: 10,
       width: 250, height: 200
   });
   win.add(textArea);
   
   
   win.open();
   
   textField.addEventListener('click', function(e){
   	Ti.API.info('hasText? ' + e.hasText());
   });
   
   textArea.addEventListener('click', function(e){
   	Ti.API.info('hasText? ' + e.hasText());
   });

The test case is actually invalid. The event object for click doesn't have a hasText() method. Instead, you should be using e.source.hasText(). I tested this on the lastest master build and it works correctly.
