Comment (by nikolov.tmw):

 Hi @torben.tschechne at gmail.com, does your second example work in 4.8.3? I
 think in this case you might have been using the function wrong. See -
 you're supplying the second parameter, but it's incorrect - if the
 `$category` term is in fact from the `product_cat` taxonomy, then why not
 just use `product_cat`?

 The Codex says that the second parameter is optional. So perhaps try
 with(`product_cat`) and without the second parameter in 4.8.3 and if that
 works, then maybe it used to work incorrectly before.
