Hi!
I forgot to reply to Stas' message yesterday, sorry... But, there is no change in behavior here either as far as I know. For the code Stas quoted, with static vars (if that's what was being referred to), there's definitely not been a change (though its parser code was tweaked a bit), and there has never been a locale issue, and the operand negation happens at compile-time (as always).
Yes, it seems like you are right - for such cases it happens in compile time in any case.
