Bug description: gmp_init treats leading zero as octal
Description:
------------
The documentation for gmp_init implies that a number will only be parsed
as hexadecimal if it begins with 0x, and decimal otherwise.
Thus: "10" means ten
"0x10" means sixteen
"010" means ten.
However, in practice, "010" is parsed as eight!.
Not sure whether this is a documentation bug, or an actual bug though.
Personally, I'd prefer "010" to mean ten, but I am aware of some
conventions in which it means octal.
Confusingly:
$x=010 //$x is eight
$x="010" //$x is ten
Please also correct the comment I added to the gmp_init page - I said that
it 010 was parsed as hex, when I meant octal.
