Comment (by Rarst):

 Anecdotally I just had to fix a regression where strict check was being
 made against the type count_user_post() is ''supposed'' to return.

 String return from a function that is supposed to return a number and is
 explicitly documented to return an integer number seems like a bug to fix
 to me.
