I don't think it requires an RFC, but I would say it it safer to leave
it for 7.1, unless extremely pressing. As little as it might seem it's
still a BC-break that would be otherwise introduced in 7.0-rc3.

That said, I'll be ok if it gets fixed in 7.0. I just raised it as it
was causing PHPUnit to bypass all the tests, thus broken builds for all
the projects depending on it.


Cheers
