--- Comment #4 from T. Gries <[email protected]> ---
When upgrading a wiki which still uses $wgAllowRealName = false (which is
deprecated but was working since recently) it can lead to an unwanted
disclosure of real names (for example used by Auth modules) in the "credits"
section of pages.

A corresponding information should be added to the RELEASE NOTES or upgrade
information.

Alternatively, an "emergency exit" could stop execution instead of revealing
real names on wikis where this is not wanted or allowed.
