That's not a bug, it's a feature: you jumped over all the
right-hand-side of the ";". The old behavior is easy to get, but is
less useful.
Basically the new behavior lets you jump over "any" subtree in the AST,
whereas the old behavior only allowed you to jump over those subtrees
which are made of a single identifier or are delimited by parentheses.
E.g. if you want to swap the order of the two top-level alternatives in
the above example, just put point before or after the ";" and hit C-M-t.

Not sure what you mean by "offset of at most 1". E.g. with
abd
toto
titi
starting at the end of "abd", after C-M-f I don't see how you can get
back to within 1 char of the original position with some number of C-M-b.
The new behavior is different, there's no doubt about it. I think the
fact that it knows about infix operators and their relative precedence
is a great improvement, bringing sexp navigation closer to what you
get in Lisp.
