This was caused by the changes in the ini parser which are important,

I have to agree, this kind of change would be very frustrating for Win32 users,
even though the solution is that simple.
Nobody reads update guides or installation instructions, they're used to write
path like that and they'll continue to do it, so we'll have much more bug reports
after the release if we keep it this way. Just try to imagine how much PHP
installations will suddenly stop working after the upgrade.
I do agree that this syntax is actually correct and it should have been
done this way since the very beginning, but now it's too late for such
changes, we have to put the old behavior back.
