No, like I showed, moving from 5.3 to 5.4 breaks because the new default
UTF-8 encoding validates the input and 8859-1 in 5.3 does not. So for
charsets that are actually safe for the low-ascii chars that are
significant to html htmlspecialchars() now returns false in 5.4 because
their chars fail the UTF8 validity check. For people who explicitly set
all the parameters nothing has changed, of course.
