What gives you that impression? What mystery did I speak about? What makes you
think that I "seem to think" there is a mystery, great or small?
I am ignorant of the various implementations - that's the only "mystery" I'm
aware of: ignorance. I have been speaking only about what a user sees.
If my suggestion to maybe look at how Martin kept backward compatibility is not
helpful then please ignore it. All I know is the behavior I see: his code was,
AFAICT, backward compatible. The current code has at least this bug, so far.

Great, then there is presumably no problem. Make it work fine. DTRT.
