Comment:

 The default value of that option indeed changed over the years. The bug
 mentioned here was introduced in [26700] for 3.8.

 It seems like a `'0' === get_option( 'blog_public' )` check in `wp-
 admin/includes/dashboard.php` (instead of checking against `'1'`) should
 really be enough to fix this.
