This is not a bug. Emacs-21.4 is the latest _stable_ version of Emacs,
Emacs-21.3.50 is an (old) version of the _development_ branch. So in
some confusing sense, 21.3.50 is "newer" than 21.4.

(Explanation: ages past, 21.4 was expected to be the new development
release. 21.3.50 was a pre-version of this. But then 21.4 was released
from the stable branch. Current development version is 22.0.50.)

The feature you describe only exists in the development branch, so is
not in 21.4.
