Hello Marcus,
The script encoding is specified by a couple of different ways.
(1) mbstinrg.script_encoding in php.ini
(2) declare(encopding=Shift_JIS) on each PHP script
- multibyte_encoding_001.phpt

the severe incompatibility problem with the older PHP 5.x.
As Stefan noted, Shift_JIS character encoding which is widely used in
Japan is not flex safe encoding because it includes 0x5c (backslash) as
second byte of a multibyte

Hello Lukas,
As such the conclusion can only be that investing any time in readding
this feature would be a bad idea. If anyone actually uses this feature
they will have to come out of the woodwork now or when 5.3 is out. At
