I suggest you file a bug report (or send a message to emacs-devel)
requesting the behavior you like.  Personally I just don't use this
behavior and instead use the batch-recompile-directory with
a 0 argument, which gives me the behavior I want without having to deal
with potentially breaking compatibility for some corner case
script somewhere.
