The 2 argument version of {store,find}_global was adjusted to have the
current ordering of data +12 months ago IIRC. The 3 argument forms are
extenstions, which you could read similar to:
store_global namespace [ var ], Pvar
find_global PRes, namespace [ var ]

No, not really. Only the 3 argument form is new.

They are listed in ops.num #1374 - #1385 since quite a time.
