There's this in the change log:

28. Address rewriting was inadvertantly lower-casing local parts so that if
they were used via numerical variables in the replacement string, the wrong
case appeared. Matching addresses in rewriting rules is now done casefully, but
with the domain in the incoming address forced to lower case (exactly as for an
address list after a +caseful item, and as documented).

What is meant by "worked fine" - did they work casefully or caselessly?
