The change was accidental (I forgot that R_ParseVector was in the API 
when I made it), but I think it will stay.  Setting the value of this 
parameter to R_NilValue gets the old behaviour.  Setting it to some 
other SEXP will have that SEXP recorded as the srcfile attribute of 
source references.

I think the description above is the level of detail of the 
implementation that it's safe to work with.  The particular format of 
source references could change.
