Thanks for reporting this. I am annoyed that this is yet another change with no mention in NEWS. The manual is currently incorrect about this. The relevant discussion seems to be here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2013-12/msg00333.html As usual, it has zero relation to the subject of the thread it is in. At least, there needs to be a new value for blink-matching-paren to bring back the old behaviour. And the documentation needs to be updated. It seems like blink-matching-paren is now more similar to show-paren-mode.
