 New Comment:

I thought INI directive names were tied up with the module
initialization in TSRM/Zend, but discovered otherwise in the wee sma'
hours of this morning.

It's possible to change the name just by altering the entries on the .c
page (in the declaration and everywhere that mentions them), and they'll
still format as normal with ini_get_all()/phpinfo(). 

It's still a bug, as in 'an undocumented change in behaviour'; if it's
fixable I'm sure Andrei will be all sweetness and light. But if it
isn't, the dot may be a good alternative for us - and a nicer error
message a good alternative for everyone else out there.

FWIW I know the hyphen was pushing at boundaries. I can't actually
remember how we got around the problem of the module name, it was so
long ago... and the module API's changed since then.

Assigning to myself, gotta check out later. The directive follow the
rule of PHP variable names: hyphen (-) is illegal in those too. But then
again, dot (.) is allowed in INI directive names. :D

Description:
------------
Trying to load PHP-GTK extensions led to the discovery that we now get
a  parser error (under doze, this is in the form of a message box). I
tried with a 5.3-dev from December and got a different message saying
that the hyphen is illegal syntax.

The INI directive, being for PHP-GTK, has a hyphen as part of its
extension prefix.

All works fine with current CVS for 5_2 branch.

Reproduce code:
---------------
extension=php_gtk2.dll
php-gtk.codepage=CP1250
php-gtk.extensions=php_gtk_libglade2.dll

Expected result:
----------------
Codepage used by PHP-GTK to change to CP1250, and the PHP-GTK extension
libglade to load.

Actual result:
--------------
(in a message box)

PHP Error
parse error in C:\sandbox\testarea\php.ini on line 10
