Pal says it's deliberate:

I think the new version is also a deliberate change:
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2011-01/msg00168.html>

But I'm not an expert (or even a novice) in mensural notation, so I think we
should get Pal's take on it.

Thanks,

Pal replied to me direct, saying that both the changes in the mensural
