I do not think this is a problem, why suppress a fatal error
if your script will break at this point at any rate? use
error_reporting() then (for productional sites)

the only thing which should be documented (if not already
done) it that errors from statements will not be suppressed

The documentation states that the @ operator suppresses all errors.

However, lines like:
  @ error_reporting E_ALL);
still generate parse errors.

I think that the current behavior is the right thing to do - AFAIK, there is no way to 
induce a parse error at runtime.  Parse errors in the code that makes up the arguments 
for eval() and create_function() are caught and handled differently then normal parse 
errors (at least AFAICT they are - @ suppresses the errors generated in this fashion).

The only real case that I can think of where you might have parse errors at runtime 
would be situations where you are dynamically including code from untested files -- if 
you are doing that though, then catching parse errors is probably the least of your 
worries. :)
