No one has said that the bug bears on the php guidelines in this manner. It bears on it as an example of the hackiness of rpm (or in this case the rpm system we are using to package Fedora, which includes rpm, redhat-rpm-config, etc). > Secondly, it has been indicated that this design is hacky.

Read again what I wrote -- it's not about a feature that's in php (well, actually a feature of the web server) "?> ", it's about a hypothetical bug discovery process involving "<?php ". -Toshio
