Comment (by here):

 Of note, the rewritten WordPress Importer will no longer be updating the
 guid to match the target.

 "... Removing the GUID change means we can easily check if an attachment
 has been imported already. The downside is that plugins still using the
 GUID may break; this needs to be fixed in the plugins in question, as the
 GUID is already an unreliable reference to the image."
