Thanks everyone, I knew this, but I didn't want to use runkit because it is a beta, and i don't want all that other stuff, just superglobals. Also, runkit only allows you to use php.ini, but my patch allows you to specify superglobals in your script with the keyword "superglobal" by saying:
superglobal $var1, $var2 ; Thanks for your help though, if anyone else is interested in the patch send me a message. This isn't something the developers would want to implement I assume, but it would be useful if they would, at a very small cost too (the patch probably under 50 lines, very simple code too). If anyone would like the patch to be implemented in CVS, let me know.
