I just noticed that a bunch of nameless functions are used in SFI_Inputs.php, which will cause errors for everyone that doesn't have PHP >=5.3. I guess this is something that was not intentional, so is a bug...
+1 vote for this. I can't upgrade my live servers to PHP 5.3 due to numerous other dependencies. It's not always a good idea to use the latest and greatest code features for stable products ;) Hopefully this is easy to sort out. Thanks. Neill.
Please note Mediawiki's minimum install spec: PHP version 5.1 or later (5.2.x recommended). So 5.3 only dependencies should be avoided. Cheers Neill.
I just had a go at fixing this (see https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/mediawiki/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/78976). Neill: can you confirm the stuff still works?
Fixed in r79270
Thanks a lot! Appreciated :)
