========================================
1. Changes made to default configuration
========================================

- The default_charset setting now defaults to UTF-8.
  It was ISO-88590-1 before, so if you were relying 
  on the default, you will need to add:

    default_charset = iso-8859-1

  to your php.ini to preserve pre-PHPX.Y behavior.

- We now check at compile time if /dev/urandom or /dev/arandom
  are present to provide non-blocking entropy to session id
  generation.  If either is present, session.entropy_file
  now defaults to that file and session.entropy_length defaults
  to 32.  If you do not want extra entropy for your session ids
  for some reason, add:

    session.entropy_file=
    session.entropy_length=0

  to your php.ini to preserve pre-PHPX.Y behavior.

- Deprecated ini directives will now throw an E_CORE_WARNING's 
  instead of the previous E_WARNING's.

  The following directives are marked as deprecated:
  - magic_quotes_gpc
  - magic_quotes_runtime
  - magic_quotes_sybase

- The following directives, which indicates a removed feature 
  in PHP will now throw an E_CORE_ERROR upon startup like the 
  deprecation warnings.

  The following directives are no longer available:
  - allow_call_time_pass_reference
  - define_syslog_variables
  - highlight.bg
  - register_globals
  - register_long_arrays
  - safe_mode
  - safe_mode_gid
  - safe_mode_include_dir
  - safe_mode_exec_dir
  - safe_mode_allowed_env_vars
  - safe_mode_protected_env_vars
  - zend.ze1_compatibility_mode
