Google Backlink update

I notice backlinks of Google shown on SEPRs(link: query) updated as well as on Webmaster Tools.

It seems much more backlinks are displayed than before.
Is there anything to do with recent elimination of supplemental index?

Yeah, you're right.

You know the results shown in a link:-query on Google are just a rough sample of the links that are known.
But it appears the number of links displayed are increased more than before.
Is it the case as for me?
