I kinda agree it doesn't make sense to disallow booleans, when internally the function clearly
only ever uses a boolean. What are the most likely thing to do is to allow anything, and then
convert them to a boolean value, something like this should probably do:

void ob_implicit_flush ([ int $flag = true ] )
*this is* at least a documentation bug becaus eyou CAN NOT pass true to a int param if you arrived
in 2017 and using strict types - either the param is bool or the default *can npt* be a bool true
and *yes* i was trapped by that too
ob_implicit_flush(true);
Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: ob_implicit_flush() expects parameter 1 to be integer, boolean
given

It's not a bug it's a Feature Request.

Description:
------------
Note that the documentation states "int" and not "bool". I think
"bool" would be more suitable, since the value should be true or false.
Test script:
---------------
declare(strict_types=1);
ob_implicit_flush (true);
Expected result:
----------------
No TypeError.
Actual result:
--------------
TypeError.
