Yes, thanks for that. It has some of the best information
I have found (I was suprised to see I had posted to the thread
years ago). It does seem that it just isn't possible and keep
'normal' functionality. I checked the php.net bug tracker and
saw a request posted on this, the response was 'will not happen.'
Not sure what the problem is, maybe a basic coding
problem when 5 was created -- but I really do think it is
slowing adoption of 5. We are a hosting provider, and it just
makes it more difficult for us to transition and get our users
to transition. Perhaps folks who are interested should submit
some bug reeports at php.net?
