I have to fight with people that using error suppression operator - they 
just hide their bugs.
I wrote simple patch that allows set disable_error_suppression=On in 
php.ini that causes engine to ignore '@' operators.

No offense, but I see this feature as a bad thing in so many ways
and on so many levels my skin is crawling. :)

Use `set_error_handler()`, then; the callback function is called
regardless whether the error suppression "operator" @ was used.

thekid@friebes:~ > php -r 'function handler() {
var_dump(array_pop(array_slice($a= `func_get_args()`, 1, 1))); }
set_error_handler("handler"); @include("foo");'
                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

string(64) "Unknown(foo): failed to create stream: No such file or
directory"
string(116) "Unknown(): Failed opening 'foo' for inclusion
(include_path='.:/home/thekid/devel/xp/skeleton:/home/thekid/classes')"

but try this :

php -r 'function handler() { var_dump(array_pop(array_slice($a= 
 `func_get_args()`, 1, 1))); }  set_error_handler("handler"); 
@nonexist();echo "and now what?";'

Sorry, but didn't all there error/warnings/info got logged if you want ? I
think you can set loggin on in php.ini and IMHO that's the best place to dig
for bugs...
