Comment (by robe):

 Okay I reported upstream

 Long story short - consensus is old behavior was a bug, but a bug they
 understand people considered a feature.  So there is debate whether to
 support the old buggy behavior, throw an error, or just give the optimal
 response even though it would result in people's old code giving right
 buggy answers.

 I'll wait till whatever they have decided on is committed and either
 rewrite the test using the recommended syntax or just turn 9.6 testing
 back on if they emulate old behavior.
