Anchor not preserved from button

We are able to use an Anchor within a Visualforce page OK, but when we use the anchor from a URL associated with a button on a standard object page - such as Case - the Anchor is not used, the page is always displayed from the top. This only seems to happen with new orgs, older ones correctly handle the Anchor either way.

Hi, can you give more details of what anchor are you using, are you trying to use an anchor on the salesforce standard page ?

say I have a custom visual force page "test.page" which has anchors A, B and C. I want to create a button on Contact standard object and click on it to go to test page anchor B. Here is the button definition:
Label: Go to Anchor B
Object Name: Contact
Name: Test_Button
Link Encoding Unicode:  UTF-8
Behavior:  Display in existing window with sidebar
Display Type:  Detail Page Button
Button or Link URL:  /apex/test#B

After I put the button on page layout and click on it, the anchor information is missing in browser location bar and the page is displayed from the top.
