No, this is not considered a bug.

It's unfortunate that there is no built in collation versioning
mechanism, or something like that -- that might have alerted you to
the problem before any real damage occurred. We have that for the ICU
collations, but it currently isn't possible to use ICU as the default
collation provider. You really have to go out of your way to use ICU
collations.
