magic_quotes_gpc is deprecated as of 5.3
http://php.net/manual/en/migration53.deprecated.php
only the default values was left to 1
I also expected this to be changed to 0, but it seems it isn't a clear
cut as Stas expressed in the 5.4 vote thread that the defaults
shouldn't be used anyway.

but my whole point for this was that
"since this is default OFF there is no warning if not configured
empty php.ini implicits =3D Off"

isn't true. if you omit a configuration option from your php.ini not
Off, but the default will be used, which is currently On for the
magic_quotes_gpc, and it isn't 100% sure that we will change the
default, of course I think we should set it to the same values as we
use for the php.ini-production.

sor I think that the original idea "Raise E_DEPRECATED when running
the CGI or any web server SAPI and a php.ini file does not contain
=E2=80=9Cmagic_quotes_gpc =3D Off" would be a bad idea, I agree with =C3=81=
ngel: PHP
should not fail if one configuration line is missing from the file.
