Leaving it does hurt. Most developers with no PHP4 experience don't know that such a feature exists and spend hours trying to figure out why a parent class' constructor isn't getting called when it's not overriden by self::__construct(). PHP can't support everything forever, old and nowadays rarely used syntax like this one must go away.
