I was expecting someone tell me that I am using it wrong :) Since it was there and I was using it (wrong or not) for past 2 years... I was not expecting its behavior to change...
And I always consider testing my apps with trunk... bug I was focusing tests on DAL... sometimes we don`t have much time... but ok no problem I will change my code... I just think it must be mention in the changelog that its behavior changed... b/c others can have the same problem...
