right, if I understand this, the problem is only with installer, so
wouldn't it be better just to make some workaround for older versions of
php for installer rather than forcing user to upgrade, while it actually
doesn't have effect on mediawiki which is already installed and working?

By bumping our PHP version requirement to 5.2.7 we no more have that
buffer reset issue. Maintenance scripts will throw a warning though [BUG
