Missing vertical space in tabulary

Question

Please consider the following MWE:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tabulary}

\begin{document}

\begin{tabulary}{5cm}{rL}   
    A & B\\[5cm]
    A & B\\
\end{tabulary}

\end{document} 

Previously (with array.sty v2.4d) this resulted in an increased space between the two rows, but with array.sty v2.4h no space is inserted.

Is there any way to restore the previous behaviour?

You could use the following workaround:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tabulary}

\begin{document}

\begin{tabulary}{5cm}{rL}   
    A & B\\ \noalign{\vspace{2cm}} 
    A & B\\
\end{tabulary}

\end{document}
