Should the 5.3 release be re-branched perhaps as well, since it too has this problem?

I will be re-branching 5.2.7 with this revert for the purpose of 5.2.8
this week. This will allow the normal 5.2 bug fixing to continue as
normal.

Hey,

There have been several bug reports about magic_quotes_gpc being
broken, at the moment in 5.2.7 the escaping is not performed even
when enabled. So any applications that attempt to undo the work of
magic_quotes_gpc will end up with problems.

I've backed out the bug that broke this #42718

Since this is a relative serious issue from a security stand point
if people rely on it being enabled and a potential data loss for
those trying to undo it, I'd like to see a release packaged asap.

If Ilia agrees then could fixes to the 5.2 branch be restricted to
build fixes only.
