PHP Bug Type:     Documentation problem
Bug description:  Documentation of ini_get() return values

Description:
------------
This problem is related to defect 41922 and applies to both PHP5 and
PHP6.

A decision has been made not to fix 41922 because of possible impact on
existing applications.

I suggest that the following text is added to the documentation for
ini_get().

Ini_get() will return a null string to indicate either (a) that the call
to ini_get() has failed, or (b) that the value of the ini setting  is a
null string. Please see here: http://uk.php.net/manual/en/ini.php for a
list of ini settings which have a null string as the default value.
