It was intentional, but I guess it became a bug :) During the
development of 5.1 we planned to change the semantics of getn/setn (so
the changes in the implementation). With the new #, that change lost its
meaning. As you said, there is no point to change the behavior for a
feature whose sole purpose is to provide backward compatibility.
We will correct that.
