It does when register_globals is set to On in php.ini (which is a bad
idea). Another way is to first call:

extract($_GET, EXTR_SKIP);

and then do what you used to do. I wouldn't use that though and stick
with using $_GET['xx'], because you'll see immediately that the variable
in question is a GET variable and it's safer.
