Description: ------------ doing var_export( $GLOBALS, true ) there is an error like in older versions of php4: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? Of course it is easy to do a workaround, but maybe it would be nice to fix it. Theres a lot of discussion araound this bug in some communities for older php versions. Maybe it is me being in error or maybe this is just a feature and not a bug? In this case sorry for disturbing... Thanks a lot for all your work!
