function func(int $i) for strict type checking, and function func((int)$i) for coercion aka casting (although now I've seen it written down I'm not so sure! ;).
I had thought about having "weak" and "strong' type checking even before Paul sent his proposal, but I rejected the idea myself for the confusion it might cause because I couln't think of a good syntax. This one actually looks pretty good, it's intuitive and consistent with what the language offers now.
