Quoting from https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50611#c7

  The observed behaviour observed with x.c is in agreement with the
  specification.  If x.c properly models the behaviour of awesome, commit
  1447071942dbbbfc37b08417c74c8a1d302c1626 just exposes a bug in awesome
  that went unnoticed thanks to the bug that this commit fixed.

Cheers,
Julien
