Not necessarily.. The error handling isn't *trying* to be easy to
understand - T_VARIABLE is probably just the macro definition for a string
(with characters allowed in a variable) with a $ in front of it, as defined
in the php source. More precise definitions of errors would slow php down
and bluk up the program - this puts the onus on the developer to be good :)
