All documentation has been updated and will show up when the manual is next built. Thanks for the report.

Agreed, especially since this change took place in PHP 4.3.2 and not PHP 5.0.0.  Should that note be removed from the migration5 docs?

I added a note within the PATH_TRANSLATED docs, updated the note in ref.apache, and replaced PATH_TRANSLATED with SCRIPT_FILENAME in the highlight_file() example.  Thank you Kevin for the report.

There is another open bug report out there that requests every BC break to be documented...like this one.  Once done, this information will be added there as well.

I just spent a good amount of time trying to figure out why PATH_TRANSLATED suddenly stopped working on me.  Therefore I think you still have a couple documentation issues regarding this.

1) The first place I looked, and the first place I would suspect other people would look, to see if the variable stopped being supported at a certain revision is:
http://us3.php.net/reserved.variables

2) The example code for highlight_file() should be changed to not use the non-existant PATH_TRANSLATED variable:
http://us4.php.net/highlight_file

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

This was already in the migration from PHP 4 to PHP 5 appendice.
I've just copied the note to the apache function reference.
