Well, just because it's that doesn't mean we should handle things similarly.
I'd be more inclined to follow c-clients model and just provide the flags,
since the php level is more a library than an application.

I get the feeling it was written to allow easy printing out of status in a
text-based program. I'd rather just report the flags...

At this point, it isn't a huge deal now that I know the workaround. So I'm
updating the documentation; in case anyone relies on the current behavior I
guess it's best to leave it alone. I'd still rather have booleans, though :)
