Alexey, stop nit-picking on stupid non-related issues. Explain why
this bug will not be fixed from a technical perspective and we'll
leave you alone. Saying that PHP is broken and/or this is a PHP bug is
not sufficient. Saying that you don't like how the user is using the
function is not sufficient. A small, non-intrusive change should not
be causing this much crap. With the time you're spending writing all
of these hurtful messages you could have comitted the fix and and
probably fixed a few more bugs while you're at it.
