In earlier versions, mod_autoindex didn't set any charset at all. This meant that AddDefaultCharset, which only works when no other charset is specified, was picked up. But it also meant that no charset was sent at all if AddDefaultCharset wasn't present. To protect buggy browsers from cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, all content originated from apache needs to have a charset assigned, so a change was made in 2.2.6 to assign a charset (utf-8 for windows and iso-8859-1 for everything else, if I recall correctly). The charset option was also added to IndexOptions for those who need to override it. So, yes, the current behavior is expected and correct and the old behavior is wrong. You should use IndexOptions charset= to change the mod_autoindex charset and not AddDefaultCharset.
