As Eli mentioned unfortunately we cannot disable trampolines.

But you are absolutely right, for a variable with such a name this
behavior is totally unexpectedle by the user.  I signaled that last week
(with no results) and indeed this is only the first of other bugs
reports we will get for this.

I've been explained this change is in master "for discussion" so I still
hope it will be reverted.
