Follow-up Comment #11, bug #59847 (project octave):

I wouldn't mind breaking API compatibility with 6.1.0.  Reasoning: 1) this is
a regression and it is more important to return to the correct behavior then
it is to preserve continuity; 2) Version 6.1.0 came out recently (~2 months
ago) and is not widely, widely installed.  Thus, the number of users who need
to upgrade is smaller than it might otherwise be; 3) Is this really going to
hit very many people?  How many users are already coding C++ that relies on
the existing API?
