I stand corrected.  I just looked at the CVS logs and this change was 
made between 2.1.12 and 2.1.13.  The old behavior was inconsistent with 
the rest of the code, and the change fixed this.  Apparently none of us 
gave any thought to th efact that this would break existing 
installations  :(

As you noted, this is easily fixed with a perl/shell script run on the 
sievedir.
