As I already said many times, I disagree with the (recent) attitude to
break things in minor releases (no matter which things).
We have added an E_STRICT mode, such changes should raise a notice in
E_STRICT and be what it should be in the next major version. However,
if the error/notice is only about purity, it should not be added.
Purists may use other languages.
