So that authentication can suspend it. There are cases, e.g. cube, where authentication is required in run.php. During bootstrapping loading modules is mostly required to load libraries, register routes and hooks. Most of the time authentication is not required for these, but if it is, evaluation is now interrupted and continued after authentication has actually been performed. I don't see a real risk for any breaking change here, since authentication happens shortly after. It actually avoids a breaking change, since without this, cube's Icinga DB support would break or at least malfunction. And cube is only a single example. refs #5265
