Yes, because that attribute is deprecated. The only implementation that seems to be broken in this regard is SSP. Mostly SPs can't handle a NameID-valued attribute anyway.

Because SAML 2 persistent NameIDs are duplicative of the original attribute, it was a SAML 1 hack to support what SAML 2 already supported.
