I don't know what your 'last' is, but current CVS doesn't output anything with
file_exists():
mfischer@ficken:~$ php -q
<? error_reporting(E_ALL); $bla = file_exists('sdahfw3gjkgsdgjksd'); var_dump($bla);
?>
bool(false)
No error outpout.

Actually, the last I checked, you _do_ need to use @file_exists() if you have error
reporting all the way up to avoid error output. That surprised me.

Wrong. You use file_exists() to first determine if something exists. The name is a bit
misleading, you can verify existense of files, directories and links (read: any file
type). file_exists() is written to _not_ output any error. Whereas the is_*()
functions are for good reason.
So, if you don't want to use file_exists(), you need to use @is_*(). This is the
expected behaviour.

when using the is_file function and a file is not found an error is sent back to the
error log. I expect this simply to return false in this case. I am aware of
file_exists, however in the manual:
Returns true if the filename exists and is a regular file.
Therefore I expect this to also be testing for file existence. I do not expect
debugging output leading me to have to use @is_file and possibly miss other crucial
error output.
