Only you can answer these questions, as only someone on the host can check
the default configuration and what can be configured. The others on this
list can only state how PHP should behave (which is what they posted). For
all we know, your host is running a custom patch.

Hopefully, you can simply enable short_open_tags in .htaccess, so that code
edits aren't required.
