copied from the most recent commit in this pull request, in case github somehow refuses to show it:

"In NewerSMBW, you can pick up fake star coins similar to how one picks up a player or POW block. However, not only is this obviously unintended, but the feature doesn't even work (you just pick up/throw air)! How disappointing...

All jokes aside, this has probably leaked its way into every major mod I can think of that uses this sprite, so it'd probably be good to fix it before we taint the future generation."

… Bear boss

For some reason, this boss has ground pound collision behavior that is completely different than the one used for Yoshi, with the cost being that it... doesn't really work properly at all. This issue can be replicated in likely every single mod that didn't modify this file, and it's almost a little surprising that nobody's noticed this.

If you're too lazy to test the code out yourself, I've made a little video demonstrating what happens and what the fix looks like:
