Comment(by danieljames):

 I'm really not the person to ask, I'm mainly trying to get some of the
 'core' libraries to be consistent on trunk and release in response to some
 recent mails on the development list.

 My normal preference would be to preserve the old behaviour for broken
 compilers (option b, I think) but the old behaviour looks wrong. I don't
 know why it was written that way so I don't feel qualified to express a
 preference. So I'm fine with your patch. No one else seems to care so I
 would suggest that you go ahead with what you think best. You've already
 asked for feedback on the development list, so I don't think you have to
 do it again, unless you feel it's necessary.

 Thanks for sorting this out.
