Just an FYI for anyone encountering strange issues with in_array.
$a = array('edit','view','somethingelse',0);
echo in_array('edit',$a) ? 'true' : 'false';
echo in_array('delete',$a) ? 'true' : 'false';
This returns "true" for both checks. instead of false for the second check.
I encountered this while debugging an issue in mediawiki.. one of the addons I used defined the
rights array incorrectly and added a "0" to the array so ALL RIGHTS CHECKS WERE TRUE!!!!.

this bug report basically brushes off the obvious wrong behaviour as "you must use strict
checking"
