If you are concerned about code working in PHP 4 and PHP 5, then you
should be writing your code to PHP 4 and it should still work in PHP 5
for the most part. If you would like to take advantage of this proposed
error reporting functionality, then you can use version_compare() and
adjust your logic accordingly for PHP5->PHP4 transitions.. 

PHP 5 already introduces a thousand new things that don't work in PHP 4.
I think trying to stop an improvement because it's not PHP 4 compatible
is a mistake.
