Bug Type: Documentation problem
Operating System: Windows 2003 Server
PHP Version: 5.1.2
New Comment:
The {$var} syntax is still available. So yes, { } are in a way still
"special".
To have '{hello}' printed you now need to use "{\$var}" and not
"\{$var}" anymore.
Being able to use "\{$var}" to print '{hello}' was an inconsistency
that now is fixed.
No documentation bug here.

"This is expected behaviour, {} is no longer special, they are being
treated like any other character."
Ok if the above is true then bothe these statements should display the
same thing?
echo "{".$var."}";
echo "{$var}";
but the first one is "{hello}" and the otherone is "hello".

I reported this "problem" few weeks ago.
and it's not a bug according to PHP Developers.
it just changed the behaviour. :-(
