I was waffling over that since it's a user-visible change in an already
established -stable branch...  :-(

There is another user-visible change coming (after 8.X is out I'll shift
stable/7 over to using TCP by default for NFS; we decided to go ahead
with that a while ago).  I could change the default behavior for crash
dumps as part of doing that saying it was an oversight on my part that
it didn't happen when stable/7 was first set up.
