vlc 0.8.6i - Raw UDP Multicast File Output broken...!?

Up until vlc 0.8.6h, I could save the IPTV UDP Multicast streams I can receive with the command line:

vlc udp://@239.35.86.11:10000 :demux=dump :demuxdump-file="IPTV.ts"

With vlc 0.8.6i, I get a cryptic error message:

main debug: creating demux: access='udp' demux='udp' path='@239.35.86.11:10000'
main debug: looking for demux2 module: 0 candidates
main error: no demux2 module matched "udp"
main error: no suitable demux module for `udp/udp://@239.35.86.11:10000'

When I go through the Windows GUI, with File->Open Network Stream, UDP/RTP Multicast, Stream/Save -> Settings -> File -> Dump raw input - the same command line is generated, yielding the same error.

Now the changelog at:

http://wiki.videolan.org/Changelog/0.8.6i

does not seem to mention any changes which would affect above command. So was something inadvertently broken in 0.8.6i?
