Since upgrading to version 9.0, tangling of babel source blocks no longer works properly for me. Specifically, the tangle file name is not inherited from settings in a property drawer higher up the sub-tree, so that "C-u C-u C-c C-v C-t" no longer behaves as it should. This worked fine in version 8 and I can't find any mention of any deliberate change in the manual or the change log.

#+END_SRC
** Pieces to tangle to test-B.el
:PROPERTIES:

:END:
+ This does not work any more in org 9
+ The pieces are tangled to =test-A.el= instead of =test-B.el=
