+PHP 5.2 Update info or NEWS explained
+
+- Added new error mode E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR. (Derick, Marcus, Tony)
+
+ This changes a few E_ERROR conditions to something that you can now catch
+ using a user error handler. If the user error handler does not grab these
+ kind of error they behave as fatal errors just like in any PHP version prior
+ to 5.2. Errors of this type are logged as 'Catchable fatal error'.
+
+- Removed ze1 compatibility mode. (Marcus)
+
+ The backwards compatibility support for the old PHP 4.x object handling that
+ uses copying by default instead of the 5.x reference handling has been
+ removed completley.
+
+- Added support for constructors in interfaces to force constructor signature
+ checks in implementations. (Marcus)
+
+ Starting with PHP 5.2 interfaces can have constructors. If you use this
+ feature then all implementing classes must implement constructors with a
+ matching signature, while normally constructors do not need to follow any
+ base class or interface constructor signature. (Signature is the name for
+ the parameter and return type definition which captures count, reference or
+ not and any type hints).
+
+- Changed __toString to be called whereever applicable. (Marcus)
+
+ The magic object method __toString() is now called whenever an object is used
+ as a string. The function must not throw an exception or the script will be
+ terminated. The PHP 5.0/%51 fallback to return a string containing the object
+ idetifier has been dropped. Note that the object identifier is never unique.
+ That measn that if you have used this feature your application has been
+ flawed. Nonetheless it will now be a catchable fatal error (see above).
+
+- Added RFC2397 (data: stream) support. (Marcus)
+
+ Under windows this can mean a very rare change of behavior. If you are using
+ NTFS filesystem and making use of meta streams in your application this does
+ no longer work for a file with the name 'data' accessed without any path. IF
+ you need to do so you have to prefix the filename with the "file:" protocol.
