It was so before the commit
http://git.geda-project.org/geda-gaf/commit/?id=acb41e99cd3c6b58add04313504a989d6cfcd68e

Roland pushed it just after I stated clearly on the list that I'll
work on C/Scheme part and gnetlist refactoring and actually started it:

http://git.geda-project.org/geda-gaf/commit/?id=ee29aa57a0b348fb7f1a42d7664abfeb2fe4a2df

I tried xorn several times but it broke my work with REPL and
rc-configuration (you know I use several scripts in Scheme, some
of which have been published on github). Requiring to use some
variable in rc-files to enable "old gnetlist" behaviour is a "good
step" by Roland to effectively hide it from users because some of
them just don't know of it and some are lazy.

I didn't want a fight and leaved things as is until we have a
consensus on how to collaborate further.

See above. The first point is good anyway. Though I would like you
to follow it, too ;-)
