There won't be any bug reports, if the ini parser detects improper

doesn't form correct escape combination) and stops with informative and

read, will figure it out, and fix it.
Did you actually read what Johannes said?
"c:\Documents\tony" is perfectly legal string in both cases.
But in 5.3 it means "c:\Documents<tab>ony" and this is THE problem.
No error messages, no explanation whatsoever.
Hi,
I read it. \D in the same string isn't a legal escaped combination and this
is where the user will be warned. Most paths are like this and this is
enough information for the user to receive an error with a link to the
changes described.
Furthermore, since when is INI compatibility a feature of PHP. I've never
considered I can simply upgrade my PHP and paste the old INI and run like
that with no tests whatsoever.
