Even though I'm not one of them I'm told there are people who are downloading random scripts for different purposes who really doesn't understand all the technical details of PHP. They just download. Now there are plenty of PHP scripts and projects just sitting somewhere but abandoned by their creators waiting to be downloaded. That script/project could use custom error handlers and could somehow depend on PHP4's behaviour.

Hmm I don't find adding an parameter to error_reporting() call making my life much harder. I didn't need it before, remember? I can go and write version_compare() in my error handler too to remain BC after using this new parameter. > > - Chris Lenar -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
