This is certainly true with tests, in this particular case that might
not be true. I would not be surprised to find that older applications
rely on the "broken" buggy behavior and new applications reply on the
"correct" buggy behavior. It may be that it's best to just go for the
"correct" buggy behavior and then handle both situations if someone
ever winds up reporting a bug for the "broken" behavior.
