I sat on this for a few days and the egg that hatched seems to agree with 
the concensus....

Keep it INI_SYSTEM.  Yes it'll be a little more hassle for hosting 
providers, but that's the reality of the beast.  The fact that unicode 
semantics *can* be turned off is our consession to the gods of the upgrade 
path and it providers plenty of maintenance woes already.  Complicating this 
with PERDIR logic is only going to make PHP6 fat, slow, and difficult to 
maintain/extend.
