Sounds hacky to me. Plus, a function call means we can't have environments that do it by default pre-8.0, and that in turn means a harder migration. But hey, as long as we get rid of the mangling, I wouldn't really care that much! :) Cheers, Andrey. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
