Well, thorough unit tests can definitely help catch stuff like this, but yeah, it really should be an error. I expect that it's just an oversight that hasn't gotten enough attention and thus hasn't been a priority among all of the various bugs that come up, so it hasn't been fixed yet. - Jonathan M Davis
