I do not mind if the error case gets changed to behave differently,
as long as the updated behaviour is something everybody thinks an
improvement over the current behaviour.  I do not offhand know what
the "fixed" behaviour should be.

I do not mind if nothing changed and documentation gets updated to
reduce end-user confusion, either.

Thanks.
