Nope, it's not new--it's been this way for a very long time (since 0.3).

However, you can protect individual words using $WikiWordCount:

   $WikiWordCount['RS232'] = 0;
   $WikiWordCount['COM1'] = 0;

or if you want to disallow this particular pattern entirely, you can
change the definition of $WikiWordPattern to require at least one lowercase
letter (don't have time to write it now--let me know if you want this).
