Well, the shame is more on our side as we did not revert this breakage when it was discovered (and it was before 5.3.8 was released). And we have hard discussions to even get an agreement about such changes being a BC break. I'm not willing to blame anyone but we are responsible here, 200%. > I have no idea what to do though.

We did it for this one as well. But the more we have the better :) Cheers, -- Pierre @pierrejoye | http://blog.thepimp.net | http://www.libgd.org -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
