From the looks of it, even though the behavior is different between 1.8.6 and 1.8.7-patched, it was addressing an ambiguity in the first place and the 1.8.7-patched behavior should be considered correct. The 8.10 release has shipped with the broken 1.8.7 interpreter and no way for users to downgrade to 1.8.6. Any chance a new package can be pushed fairly soon for 8.10?
