"For you, most gracious hir..."

In 5.0.0, the shopkeepers address me as 'hir' when I pick up unpaid items. It was 'sir' or 'lady' in 3.6. Is this a deliberately nongendered greeting (I've seen it as an objective pronoun, but not as a form of address) (even though my character's gender is set to male), a typo, or something else?

Been a fan for 30+ years, got as far as Fifth Elephant in my current full series readthrough, and I just noticed that "Uberwald" means roughly the same thing as "Transylvania": over/beyond the woods.
