I'm not concerned about the reason for the changes on Posix (although I am a bit
curious).  And AFAIK _no_ reason has been given for changing the default
behavior on Windows.

The only explanation I saw for the changes I've seen on Windows was that these
were temporary bugs introduced accidentally and that would soon be corrected.
Eli too asked that the previous default behavior be restored on Windows, IIUC.
I thought that was going to happen, and I still hope that it will.
