I just don't see the point in this.  There are other functions like
split() that rely on the ereg code, and since removing the code isn't
actually going to save you anything as the library is non-optional in
Apache, removing the hooks from PHP makes no sense.  I don't think
disabling functions in PHP is a good way to enforce coding conventions.
