Hey,
I don't see any reason to continue supporting register_globals at any
level. It's been turned off by default in 4.2.0 (circa 2002), deprecated in 5.3.0 and removed in 5.4.0. There's no reason to keep supporting it, it's not a good use of our resources to maintain that support.
I very much agree with this. Having a check for register_globals being on that exits the code seems like a good way to address the issue with minimal effort.
Cheers
