I think a lot of people miss the point of these particular functions. This isn't about whether to keep magic quotes or not, it is whether to keep the function that tells you whether magic quote mangling is enabled. There is a lot of code out there that checks to see if this feature is on, and deals with that case. Having this function that simply tells the code to take the other path will allow it to work. This is not about restoring the magic quotes feature at all. -Rasmus
