The options are: 1. Apply Tomas's patch to make case-insensitive lookups locale-ignorant. Pros: fixes immediate problem. Cons: breaks BC for case-insensitive function/method name lookups for high-bit characters in single-byte encodings. (Not that we've ever advertised or documented that.) 2. Make function/method names case-sensitive, per Stan's e-mail. Pros: fixes problem; brings PHP into line with most other languages; extra consistency with variables; possible performance improvement. Cons: BC break from current documented behaviour. 3. Do nothing. Pros: no BC breaks of any kind. Cons: continues to annoy Turkish and Azeri developers and those developing for those locales. If you'd care to reply with a vote for option 1, 2 or 3, I'll tally up the votes in a week or so. And yes, I am volunteering to deal with this should option 1 or 2 be picked. AdamNot that my input matters, but I vote for #2. Mark Skilbeck.
