Hi Manuel and all developers. I understand that the implementation of strtok was "broken" (non POSIX compliant) but since it has been like this for ages would be better to give a chance to developers worldwide (that has been using and relied on this broken implementation) to control the behaviour of such feature much the same way REGISTER_GLOBALS (or something) in recently 4.1.0. Imagine recoding 100+ distributed scripts to change this! The decision of having this "fixed" is great but not paying attention (like you always did in the past) with backwards compatibility is (IMHO) a mistake.
