register_ini_entries(), which is the service function that modules use to 
register their entries, doesn't use alter_ini_entry().  It checks the 
configuration hash (=php.ini) for a default value.  If it exists, it uses 
it as the default value (it doesn't use alter_ini_entry()), if it doesn't - 
it uses the built-in default.

I looked at the actual code, and apparently, there's a useless call to 
alter_ini_entry() in the php.ini reader.  Since the INI entries have not 
yet been registered (register_ini_entries() has not been called yet), 
alter_ini_entry() fails at this point.  This doesn't change what I said in 
the previous paragraph though - it should still work.
