So let's revert the patch until we have a working solution.
It seems that upstream doesn't consider this a regression but intended change in behaviour instead [1]: <cite> Yes, --recursive is position-sensitive option and as such it must be used before arguments it is supposed to affect. Please see 3.4.4 "Position-Sensitive Options"[1], for details. </cite> In this case, we should re-introduce the reverted patch and fix all packages that use the wrong option position.
