I wondered privately if anyone would give that very useful advice. O:)
It is similar to what I told a colleague who wrote the code which
triggered the bug. :) (side-note: I was kinda sympathetic to what he did - he

Be what may be, the hard-to-debug side-effect stands as weak point
of PHP design no less.
