Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] [VOTE] __debugInfo()
From: cryptocompress@googlemail.com (Crypto Compress)

Hi!

This is a somewhat unexpected BC break in a point release. Why no 6.0 
option?
class Dog  { public function __debugInfo() { return ['Cat']; } }
var_dump(new Dog); // Array { "Cat" }

Name is a bit ambiguous. This method does not debug anything as in 
xdebug or phpdbg. It exposes internal "__state".
