SpatialFilter SpatialRelDescription Bug?

Question

I'm upgrading some 9.3.1 ArcObjects applications to 10.2.1 and I'm getting some weird results. I have code that does "interior intersects" using a spatial filter and is returning features that obviously do not have intersecting interiors.

pSpatialFilter.SpatialRel = esriSpatialRelEnum.esriSpatialRelRelation;
pSpatialFilter.SpatialRelDescription = "T********";

The code is being used to select lines that intersect polygons. I've attached a screen shot of the result, it looks like maybe it's using the envelope of the features, not the features themselves?

It worked perfectly in 9.3.1.

Has anyone else come across this?

Just an update on this. ESRI did confirm is was a bug and it is fixed in 10.2.2.

The bug is similar at the NIM092869 (http://support.esri.com/en/bugs/nimbus/TklNMDkyODY5) and it's new with ArcGIS 10... I use this workaround to solve it after our migration from 9.3.1...

...
        Dim itfSelctSet As ISelectionSet
        Dim itfResltSet As ISelectionSet = Nothing
        ' Create First spatialFilter
        itfSpatlFiltr = New SpatialFilter
        itfSpatlFiltr.Geometry = _itfPolgnExtra
        itfSpatlFiltr.SearchOrder = esriSearchOrder.esriSearchOrderAttribute
        itfSpatlFiltr.SpatialRel = esriSpatialRelEnum.esriSpatialRelRelation
        itfSpatlFiltr.SpatialRelDescription = strDescrReltn ' (ex. "T**F**FF*")
        ' First Selection
        itfSelctSet = Me.itfFeatrClassR.Select(itfSpatlFiltr, _
                                               esriSelectionType.esriSelectionTypeHybrid, _
                                               esriSelectionOption.esriSelectionOptionNormal, _
                                               itfDatst.Workspace)
        ' Workaround bug NIM092869...
        '*****************************************
        If itfSpatlFiltr.SpatialRelDescription.StartsWith("T") Then
            Dim itfSelctSetBug As ISelectionSet = Nothing
            ' SpatialFilter to substract
            itfSpatlFiltr.SpatialRelDescription = "F********"
            ' Second bug selection to substract
            itfSelctSetBug = itfSelctSet.Select(itfSpatlFiltr, _
                                                esriSelectionType.esriSelectionTypeSnapshot, _
                                                esriSelectionOption.esriSelectionOptionNormal, _
                                                itfDatst.Workspace)
            ' Substract bug selection from the first selection
            itfSelctSet.Combine(itfSelctSetBug, _
                                esriSetOperation.esriSetDifference, _
                                itfResltSet)
            itfSelctSet = itfResltSet
        End If

The spatial reference of both geometries is the same, they are both in the same feature dataset in Oracle (SDE Binary storage option).

I've found a different series of spatial relationships that let me achieve the same goal, I guess my point was:

Why does this work differently in 10.2.1 than it did in 9.3.1?
