Description:
------------
Because the message below: 

Warning: Directive 'register_globals' is deprecated in PHP 5.3...

is generated as a PHP Warning and not Deprecated?

Think about how to upgrade php to 5.3 on a server where there are several customers with scripts that use register globals on

I would leave as register globals on and 
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_USER_DEPRECATED, thus omitting the message register globals is deprecated

Yep thats right in 5.3 it throws a regular E_WARNING, whereas in 5.4 it will throw an E_CORE_WARNING. So disabling E_DEPRECATED in your php.ini won't disable those warnings although the error message indicates its a deprecation.

However I'm going to commit a patch that changes it back to E_DEPRECATED as my original patch had before it was committed, and the E_ERROR for zend.ze1_compatibility_mode will be changed to an E_CORE_ERROR.
