Sorry, I should have been clearer. I understand that the behaviour has
changed and you did not expect this.

If you'd like to see this changed, the appropriate venue is the PHP
project itself, rather than Ubuntu's packaging of PHP.

In Ubuntu, we can only really go with what the PHP project has decided.
If we were to change the behaviour of PHP especially for Ubuntu to work
around this, then this would cause even more confusion and bug reports
as people expect the same PHP script to behave in the same way for the
same PHP version across distributions.

Thus this bug in the packaging of PHP *in Ubuntu* is Invalid, since we
can't change the behaviour just in Ubuntu. But this doesn't stop you
from taking this up with the PHP project itself. Based on their
documentation, it sounds like they have already made the decision on
this, but you are welcome to contact them about it. The PHP project's
bug reporting page is at https://bugs.php.net/ and general support at
http://www.php.net/support.php
