       Note:  Parent constructors are not called implicitly. In order
       to run a parent constructor, a call to parent::__construct() is
       required.
Is this an error in the manual or in PHP itself? Should I report it somewhere?
No, this is not a bug. This means that if you define a new constructor / destructor, the parent class's won't be called unless you put it in the new ones.
Although not a bug, it is a little misleading, i've corrected it to explain when the constructor isn't called. Curt

Thanks, all i needed to know :) The manual's a bit confusing on that part... Cheers, Daniel
