I just found this out a couple days ago when I checked the ereg manual

Did the deprecation notice just get made in 5.3 or has it been there
longer than that?
not expect it to come on PHP 5.4 (?) or PHP 6.
Cheers,

The ereg functions cannot work with Unicode and can't be fixed without

many active maintainers (inside and outside php).
