Well, with unicode semantics enabled, many PHP applications that have not been designed with PHP6+unicode in mind are likely to break. On the other hand when semantics are off, those applications may work just fine. The other reason could be that unicode enabled PHP will be noticeably slower then the one without it, so hosters to conserve system resources may only enable it for people who actually need the functionality.
Well to me its still not clear how much code will remain working with PHP6 given the confusing situation about E_STRICT, deprecation, OO purity-changes.
Maybe its more feasible to work on making it easier for people to run different PHP versions on the same host. I am sure Sara has some ideas :)
