Throwing E_DEPRECATED on startup

G'day

I'd like to propose a change for when PHP starts to throw an
E_DEPRECATED notice for each of the deprecated ini directives (such as
register_globals, safe_mode ect.) like in HEAD where they just throw a
warning (more about that below). I have attached a patch for this in
5.3 (which is the only branch this patch really relates to).

As you can see in the patch, I've also changed the
zend.ze1_compatibility_mode to throw an fatal error instead of a
previously warning which forces people to update their php.ini or
refactor their script to use newer and better behavior. Speaking of
changing to a fatal error, I would also like to propose to do the same
in HEAD (which I've also attached a patch to).

I'd like to include this in the next 5.3 release, whether its Beta 2
or RC1, feedback are welcome!

Resending the patch, as Felipe said it wasn't there for some odd
reason because of the file extension and for the sake of sanity:

http://paste2.org/p/142865 - PHP_5_3
http://paste2.org/p/142866 - HEAD

Yeah.

Good thing to notice the user of bad configuration. I'm wondering a bit
how we can educate people about magic_quotes_gpc ... people who blindly
disable them probably break stuff which is "secure" by accident. This is
not only relevant to this patch though. The best idea I have is a clear
pointer to the docs from the message ...

There are couple of issues with throwing errors at startup:

They are thrown so damn early that the user will never see them
run-tests.php gets very confused and starts expecting HTTP headers
in the EXPECT section

If we could delay the checks until after php_module_startup()..

The patch is just like the one in HEAD (for E_WARNINGS about removed
configurations), meaning that we may need to change it after there
aswell.

Now that 5.3.0 is out, are you looking into fixing run-tests.php or all tests?

Like I warned about; if you enable any of these features in your
php.ini and then run the test suite.. there are only a handful of
tests that actually pass.

Indeed.  Going to install it on the CA2 mirror server this morning

brought up a ton of failed and skip messages, which I mentioned to
Hannes. Here's the grep'd output:

The rest of the 9,400+ tests all came back with undesired results.

There were no other problems on any of the dev boxes I tried this
morning, just the test results.

I had the same this morning when I compiled PHP on my solaris machine. The
php.ini from my system-wide lib folder was used for the tests. In my case it
claimed about the deprecated *_long_arrays setting (or something like that).
Almost no test worked until I edited my global php.ini.

Tests should use a local php.ini in the build directory.

Well, actually they do use local ini. It's just sanitized version of
your global one.

run-tests.php seems most reasonable to fix, and then those tests that
fail (aka. those who havnt been updated to catch these warnings).

Like I warned about; if you enable any of these features in your
php.ini and then run the test suite.. there are only a handful of
tests that actually pass.

I can see us passing -n parameter to the binary when executing a test,
as most tests rely on the default builtin values in php.

That defeats the point of the tests. They need to be tested under
various configurations.

For those tests that require special INI settings we have the --INI--
section to make sure those are set the way the test requires it.
Everything else should work under other configurations.
