You got me wrong. If you read again in the beginning, I said I was
kidding. Then I expressed my opinion that fixing PHP bugs would be a
better way to spend time than come here and start yet another "repress
Manuel" thread. I never said or intended that you would have to agree.
You can disagree, but my opinion is that is not reasonable. The world
can live without this, but bugs need to be fixed soon or later, or else
they will remain there forever rotten.
