Actually, I suspect it is a side effect of subscript quoting cleanup. I do
not see any real changes in bin_typeset that are aimed at the above - but I
suspect that 'foo[1]' was not treated as array subscript before.

BTW it is allowed in 4.0.2, I do not have earlier versions here readily
available. May be, it was always possible?
