Your php.ini is being found & read allright, the problem is that the INI scanner looks 
for _string_ constants, while all constants are registered as _unicode_ constants in Unicode mode.
So it fails to find E_ALL constant and ends up with atoi("E_ALL"), which is 0.

I committed a fix for this one a minute ago.

The broken function names in error messages are easy to fix too, as soon as we 
drop the Switch - functions in Unicode mode are registered using their Unicode names, 
but then a weird thing happens:
zend_register_standard_ini_entries() makes Unicode copies of function/class/constant tables 
(ignoring the fact that they are already Unicode ones), this is why you see only the first 
character in function names.

The patch is as easy as this: http://dev.daylessday.org/diff/fix_unicode_function_names.diff
I didn't commit this one yet as I didn't investigate how it would affect non-Unicode mode 
(and whether I should worry about non-Unicode mode at all).
