hmm right .. var_dump() changes .. probably possible to handle someway or another. to me the best solution seems to be to create an extension that overloads the default var_dump() (if xdebug can do it ..) in 5.3 with the old version in 5.2. regards, Lukas Kahwe Smith mls@pooteeweet.orgWould it make sense to run the 5.2 test suite against 5.3 to try to find BC breaks?Yes and no :-) The difference it would show up most often (I think) are the changes in the format of the text that you get from errors, also changes to the output from var_dump() on an object. However - I'm just speculating so I'll give a try and let you know what happens.
