No. The disappeared support was for traditional ambiguous variant. From
my point of view not supporting that variant is a feature. Though the
question whether IO can/should be replaced with IE is flamy (formally,
replacing is allowed only in some cases; not replacing is always
allowed). Actually, patches to #511290 were sent during flamewar on
that subject on debian-russian.

I was referring to the grave bugs which were introduced while trying
to "fix" #511290.
