Yes, they did. They ran their programs only on systems with ansi encoded strings or simply passed the strings unchanged. That's why the lazarus solution even work with broken UTF-8 strings. But now a lot of implicit conversions will be added so all strings must have valid encodings. You can no longer pass unknown encoded strings through the functions.
