Hi guys,
I was wondering if 7.0 could be the version to fix the long-standing
incorrect ternary associativity bug in PHP [1]. This seems especially
worthy of reconsideration since the Null Coalesce RFC has been
accepted and merged [2] with the correct associativity [3].
The major version change seems like the only time to get this done in
PHP.

thanks,

Actually, thinking further on this, I'm not sure I've ever actually been
affected by the associativity of ?: one way or the other.
I have fallen foul of its precedence relative to concatenation, as in:
echo 'hello' . false ? ' world' : ' there' . '!';

But I think this is the same in other languages, and not related to this
bug?
