Interestingly, every other menu on that level across the PHP.net site puts
the menu on the right. Initially I put the related functions menu on the
right just to match for consistency. It felt a bit odd at first, I admit.

Then I realized this fixes an issue where the functions are listed first
instead of the content in browsers without media query support or in small
browser windows. This is actually a pretty big deal so I committed the
change.

I have been aware of this for some time and my various attempts to fix it
have been fruitles. Just now I realized a simple word-wrap property might
fix the issue; sometimes we just don't see the easy solution for whatever
reason. This should be fixed soon.

No worries. Your question is valid and I am sure other people others are
wondering the same.
