This bugfix breaks MI::DSL <1.19 which is reliant on the buggy behaviour.

Already confirmed dev-perl/LWP-Online is affected.

The rest are possible candidates that individual bugs may be opened for in future:

dev-perl/Test-ClassAPI
dev-perl/ORLite
dev-perl/asa
dev-perl/PPI-PowerToys
dev-perl/Algorithm-Dependency
dev-perl/ORLite-Migrate
dev-perl/Test-SubCalls
dev-perl/Text-FindIndent
dev-perl/Locale-Msgfmt
dev-perl/Class-Autouse
dev-perl/prefork
dev-perl/Module-Manifest
dev-perl/Chart-Math-Axis
dev-perl/Devel-Dumpvar
dev-perl/Class-Adapter
dev-perl/LWP-Online

Let's reopen this once we actually find such a bug.
