I'll take your word on it (although I can't be sure exactly what it is that you
expected),
which means the change has been reverted, or the input parsing stuff has been
changed to
recognize escaped square brackets as if they were not escaped - I know for sure
that http_build_query() did escape quare brackets in 5.1.6 and that url query
strings
that included escaped square brackets were not parsed into [nested] arrays.
a bug closed bug shows that this was changed for 5.1.3:
