Because you changed the behavior from older GCC's without updating the documention and the documention has not changed since 1996 and most likely even older than that. So nobody had depended on it at all, why should we fix something which is never been true except for what you added? which was not even really discussed that much at all. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24414
