PHP 4.0 Bug #2881: Not Parse error for invalid ereg arguments.

From: php-bug@slayford.com Operating system: Linux/RH6.0 PHP version: 4.0 Beta 2 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: Not Parse error for invalid ereg arguments. The following line I would expect to produce a parse error since the third argument of the ereg function is not a variable. ereg("^(ONE|TWO)[ ]+(THREE FOUR)$","ONE FOUR",argreg); Instead the scripting engine bombs out with no output before producing any output that should have been before it. This suggests that the error is occuring during the parse phase. I haven't included a backtrace since your instructions on howto do so was a missing page.
