Well, I'm not going to debate what they should/shouldn't have done. And I agree, it's always an issue in a revision (and not a major version upgrade).
But also remember that POSIX, SUS, LSB, etc... standards sometimes force these changes. I don't think that happened here, but just keep that in mind for some things. ;->
