I'm not much in favour of this variable either, but it fixes a real
problem (that end-of-defun is basically misdesigned -- we move point
before end-of-defun-function, which is just way too DWIM and doesn't
allow you to make end-of-defun-function behave).

A complete redesign would have been better, but I think we're not going
to do that, so I'm closing this bug report.
