It might have produced a warning on older versions.

if (a & b) doesn't work quite like if (a && b), but it's not the obvious error 
that if (a = b) tends to be.  If you restrict yourself to logic values rather 
than arbitrary numbers, and don't mind losing the short circuit behavior, 
then something if (a==b & c==d) will in fact work as expected.
