>From https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=479580769 :

when I'm looking at an old revision of a page there are edit section links
available, however when I click on one it takes me to editing the same numbered
section, but of the current revision, not the old revision that I was looking
at (does that make sense?). So, is this a new thing or has it always been like
that? 

It's new. It occurs for all sections on all pages I tested but an example can
be good anyway:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29&oldid=478913156#Article_counter
currently has a section edit link saying
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)&action=edit&section=50.
