The current php.ini-recommended in CVS for 5.2 has this at line 95...

; - magic_quotes_gpc = Off         [Performance]
; Input data is no longer escaped with slashes so that it can be sent into ; SQL databases without further manipulation. Instead, you should use the ; function addslashes() on each input element you wish to send to a database.

As far as I was aware addslashes is inadequate for this purpose. Should this not point people to use database-specific escaping functions rather than addslashes?
