Hmm...
The best I can find was this topic from 2011-01-19 (in Portuguese)
https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Esplanada/propostas/Fim_de_Wikipedia:Pseudo-redirect_%2819jan2011%29
where I described what I believe was the old behavior.

Specifically on
https://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=23512390
I mentioned that if someone search for "Adrianna Prieto" (without the quotes,
the "site" and the "intitle" parameters, contrary to what I did on comment 0)
on Google it would suggest the correct name "Adriana Prieto". This still
happens, but not if I search using the parameters:
https://www.google.com.br/search?q=Adrianna+Prieto
https://www.google.com.br/search?q=intitle%3A"Adrianna+Prieto"+site%3Apt.wikipedia.org

On
https://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=23576777
I mentioned that asking Google to 'define:"Dilma Roussef"' (instead of the
correct "Dilma Rousseff") as in
https://www.google.com.br/search?q=define:%22Dilma+Roussef%22&defl=all
returns a paragraph whose text is from the real article, but as if the text
were from the URL corresponding to the redirect page (as I was expecting on
comment 0). Besides, I said that at that time, asking for 'define:"Dilma
Rouseff"' would not do the same (but I just checked and it does return the text
from the real article as well)

So maybe this is not a MW bug after all, since I was testing using different
commands in the two mentioned occasions...
