The point remains that we're not enabling anything which we're later
going to break. Nobody is going to come to *depend* on this behaviour.

And anyway, this behaviour exists even *before* my patches, as Michal
pointed out in a far more helpful and constructive fashion in
<CACqU3MU4wJb3ij6skod-ZiM+Q0OMTXNdbJ+qWjJW8VZNEP+x1g@mail.gmail.com>
earlier today.

It's simple enough to fix, too:
