IIRC, it was a recent change ir tset(1), probably this one to
tset/set.c:

revision 1.18
date: 2015-06-21 11:23:22 +0300;  author: mlelstv;  state: Exp;  lines: +15 -13;  commitid: iuxh5X28WnMwXgqy;
Restore logic for setting the VERASE character.
- use terminfo _unless_ the terminal does overstrike.
- use terminfo data not only for an unset tty.

There was a lengthy thread about that, but I don't remember if it was
in some PR or on current-users.
