This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the

Log: Fix #72444: Documentation doesn't reflect loosening of reserved word restrictions

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/reserved.keywords
---
"You cannot use any of the following words as constants, class names, function or method
names".
As of PHP 7 however - these words *can* be used as constants and method names as per http://php.net/manual/en/migration70.other-changes.php
Test script:
---------------
Visit http://www.php.net/reserved.keywords
Expected result:
----------------
The page reflects the situations in which reserved words cannot be used with appropriate note about
7.0 vs. pre-7.0
Actual result:
--------------
The page reflects out of date information which isn't accurate with the current release of PHP.
