Bug description:magic_quotes_gpc is deprecated but defaults to 1

Description:
------------
http://php.net/manual/info.configuration.php states:

Warning  This feature has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.3.0 and REMOVED as of
PHP 5.4.0.

But yet:

Name              Default [...] Changelog
magic_quotes_gpc  "1"           Removed in PHP 5.4.0.

Pretty much all distros ship with PHP 5.3.x that has it disabled today:

magic_quotes_gpc = Off

But when PHP has no configuration file (which happens to be the case for
CLI in some bundles/distros; e.g., MAMP), then the evil feature is
unexpectedly enabled.

Proposed solution:

- Change the default to "0" (off).


Related bugs:
- https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61550 - philip stated that "It remains on
by default with PHP 5.3.x", but did not give a reason for why that is.  Any
chance to discuss, or at least to get a reason?
