That is a very old rule - perhaps Jurassic could explain what it used to be .
Used to be exactly the same.The basic concept hasn't changed in the last 40 years--if you have player control inbounds,you can call a TO.There used to be some crap in the book about not being able to call a TO if there was an "imminent change of possession",but I don't think they ever covered this particular sitch(mainly because nobody thought of it and nobody ever tried it).
