Well, if we move to checking in ZPP only, then some of the errors that
previously were fatals (like iterator_array("")) would now become
warnings. In fact, even type mismatch is a warning for ZPP, which may
be unexpected, as it was a fatal before, so we may want to change that.
But in some situation, like argument number mismatch, we will have a
warning, where before it was a fatal error. Which isn't strictly BC
break but allows some code to pass which previously didn't and may
hide some bugs.
So we may want to be careful there.
