Expected by code or by the progammer(s)?

That said, strong API guarantees are the way, documentation should note the bug, introduce a fixed version for the API, maybe schedule deprecation in 10-15 years, and carry on with life.

It's not worth it to hunt down every client and make them fix your honest mistake.
