Previously, the signatures were dba_fetch($key, $handle) and dba_fetch($key, $skip, $handle) - it effectively had a non-final optional parameter. Whether that makes it too early to deprecate the older 3-parameter form, I'm not sure. As you say, it's probably pretty rare, particularly because according to the docs that parameter is ignored for most file formats the function supports anyway. Regards, -- Rowan Tommins [IMSoP]
