I'm hearing two options here: 1) Name the new function bcpowmod() to keep it similiar to existing functions, we'll worry about renaming the functions in this module later... 2) Name the new function bc_powmod(), rename the existing functions now, and create aliases. Possibly introduce an ini option to control whether or not deprecated functions are enabled or not. #2 Sounds like "The Right Way" to do it, but also sounds like something which needs a strong consensus before implementing and should perhaps be put off till the next revision (4.4 or 5.0 -- whichever it winds up being)
I'd go for #1 now as this should be done anyway. Andi
