One of the rare case where I would just call for a "Ignore RAW", mostly because I think the peoples who updated the race back then didn't figure that out probably and I don't think the duration nerf was intentionnal. But who knows?)
Hengeyokai shapeshifting is Alternate Form (which used to function as polymorph self in 3.0) so it gets updated to the 3.5 Alternate Form ability, not 3.5 Polymorph.
