It isn't and it doesn't. If there are no file names with embedded
newlines, both "^" and "\`" do the same. The "should" is to remind
this issue to those who want their customizations DTRT with newlines
in file names; previously, they needed to figure that by themselves,
or learn it the hard way.

There was no change, except in the doc string (and in the value
suggested during customization). No code changes, and the default
value is still nil.
Can we close this bug, please? (Ts-ts-ts, such a nice bug number.)
