Seriously though, I think the best solution to this is to bring back the
previous behavior. There are clearly a lot of configurations in the wild
that depends on this (I probably have some myself), and a minor
dot-release is not the right time for such a change. Logging a warning
would probably also be appropriate.
Then at some point in the future (Exim 5?) reintroduce the current
behavior, but make sure it's covered in the release notes. People are a
lot more likely to read release notes and preform testing when upgrading
to a new major-version.
