So far, I've identified that this breaks more than one important PEAR package: XML_Parser, HTML_Quickform, as well as the PEAR package manager (which has the side effect of breaking the PHP install process). Additionally, it borks ADODB. And I can't test Smarty and PEAR::SOAP because right now they're dumping core. :) > It also seems really against the spirit of PHP to enforce this sort > of thing.
