I think the real answer here is to treat these as read-only arrays.  ie.
never use them on the left side of the '=' and you will never run into
problems.  Or if you do, be consistent and use the same array all the
time.  You are writing your code with the assumption that these two arrays
are the same.  Where does this assumption come from?  Hopefully not the
documentation.

What is the reason for separating $HTTP_*_VARS and $_*?

For memory wise, if $HTTP_+_VARS and $_* points to the same hash it would be nicer.

Are we going to depreciate long track vars?
Does anyone mind if I add ini option "long_track_vars" to turn on and off long track vars?
