How about removing the depreciated functions completely, and providing a userside implementation of them.. include_once 'depreciated.php'; That works for functions at least.. , pass-by-ref is a bit more complex..

erm, advancing on the idea; (posting this off-list so I don't look like a fool if this is overly idiotic :)

                       case E_USER_NOTICE:
                               error_type_str = "Notice";
                               break;
+                       case E_DEPRECATED:
+                               error_type_str = "Deprecated Functionality";
+                               break;
+                       case E_STRICT:
+                               error_type_str = "Strict Standards";
+                               break;
                       default:
                               error_type_str = "Unknown error";
                               break;

I don't like branching the subject out too much, but I figure this is relevant enough; why don't we add register_globals to the E_DEPRECATED functionality? It would give fair final warning, and we could finally get rid of the functionality completely at a relevant time.

Most people probably wouldn't take to this idea. I would rather clean it all in source, it would give people less margin for complaint.
