While keeping compatibility with 5.1 may seem a good idea, I'd strongly suggest 
that you treat it like PHP4 and pretend it does not exist. One of the problems 
with clean new code is throwing in stuff which has no place going forward. 
Personally I wish they had simply called PHP5.3 '6' and had done with it. In 
reality it's that different in areas that it should be considered a major 
version. PHP5.1 is no longer supported, and should be treated as such.
