If you want an all in one solution without having to have two versions,
can't you read the status of register_globals from the config file and base
the rest of the script on this?
eg
if (register_globals == 'on') {
$name = _POST['name'];
$address = _GET['address'];
}

then you can access the variables as if register_globals = on even if it
isn't
