Could we please, please, please have a way of cloning objects which 
works in both versions? I'd like to use the new semantics as soon as 
it's available (no compatibility mode) but still be able to run my 
application on PHP4.

See my posting about the need for a clone() function. I didn't get an 
answer there so I wonder how everyone else is dealing with this issue.
