} Does the original change achieve what it was meant to do on Windows?
} The changelog when it was added suggested that it was just trying
} something that might help.

We had the windows user who reported the original problem try it, and
he said it helped.

I think the new implementation is a bit cleaner anyway, from a
data-encapsulation point of view, so I'm not too upset with making the
change. The backwards-compatibility shim is somewhat ugly, I agree.
