OK, that makes sense. Thanks for your fast and precise answer, Joey (but I wasn't expecting less..:-)) As a consequence, this is not exactly a bug but more a feature. It's not anyway really a blocker for me as my build box will soon be updated to jessie. I suggest marking the bug as fixed in version 1.2x (x>5 and x<=8) and maybe keep it opened as referene for people who'll be falling in the same trap in the future?
