Re: disabling ereg

Hello Pierre, I mean that the ereg extension is deprecated, yet we cannot disable it while compiling PHP. In other words, ereg() and friends always exist in PHP, and emit E_DEPRECATED errors upon use. We should have the option of creating fatal undefined function errors… basically. Currently this exists for ereg: --with-regex[=TYPE] So I guess we want: --without-regex Even though --disable-ereg would feel more natural.
