Gustavo, it's probably a good idea in future to be a little more verbose
about the content of an RFC. The original mail didn't really give much
context with what was being proposed, so was easily skimmed over I guess.

That said, it *was* announced through the correct channels, and if you see
and RFC and don't know what it's about, all you have to do is click it and
see.

So your code has been generating errors since 2006 and you didn't think to
fix it? E_STRICT is an error just like any other. Ok, probably shouldn't
start a discussion about this, but it was my first thought.
