If you are concerned about code working in PHP 4 and PHP 5, then you should be writing your code to PHP 4 and it should still work in PHP 5 for the most part. If you would like to take advantage of this proposed error reporting functionality, then you can use version_compare() and adjust your logic accordingly for PHP5->PHP4 transitions.. PHP 5 already introduces a thousand new things that don't work in PHP 4. I think trying to stop an improvement because it's not PHP 4 compatible is a mistake.
