Write yourself a bit of code that replaces ereg which could be installed in an auto_prepend location server-wide. Here's an example you could start with, although I should point out that I spent all of about 30 seconds thinking about it, so you might want to give it more thought than that - I'm sure there are some funny edge cases in the way people have relied on ereg behaviour, but you'd be more likely to know that than I since I haven't used ereg() since the day PCRE
support was added to PHP.


if (! function_exists('ereg')) {
        function ereg($pattern, $string, &$regs = array()) {
                $matches = array();
$delimiters = array(chr(1),chr(1),chr(1),chr(1),chr(1),chr(1),'/', '@', '#', '%', '_'); foreach($delimiters as $c) { if (strpos($string, $c) !== FALSE) continue; $d = $c; } if (preg_match_all($d.$pattern.$d, $string, $matches)) return strlen($string);
                return false;
        }
}

Much the same could be done for split(), ereg_replace(), and so on.
