note 76765 added to function.metaphone

Metaphone was developed by Lawrence Philips as a response to deficiencies in the Soundex algorithm. It is more accurate than Soundex because it "understands" the basic rules of English pronunciation. Metaphone is available as a built-in operator in a number of systems, including later versions of PHP. The original author later produced a new version of the algorithm, which he named Double Metaphone, that produces more accurate results than the original algorithm. The algorithm produces keys as its output. Similar sounding words share the same keys and are of variable length.
