Hi Gina,

I was ambivalent to this before, but after reading the discussion, voted no
for two reasons:


   - exit without parenthesis s still not a function, that does not makes
   handling this on extension level (tools, profilers) more reliable, instead
   more confusing. I don’t mind the work this might cause for an extension, so
   i don’t join Christoph’s and Derick’s argument here that this a break for
   extensions that disqualifies the change.
   - If it still does not allow me to set exit as disabled_functions, then
   this creates an inconsistency


I also have a question: From a userland perspective, it looks it creates
inconsistency calling exit with global namespace prefix, depending on
parenthesis or? \exit(); will now work, but \exit; will not?

Also if https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/4084 taught me anything, trying
to add eval support for disabled_functions, then maybe we should throw
warnings instead when using that ini setting to disable op codes, instead
of silently ignoring that this won’t work.
