phpDocumentor does not rely upon magic_quotes, it just turns it off.
Anything that removes the E_DEPRECATED and still keeps them off is good,
and is not a BC break.  FYI, I argued pretty hard on internals@ that we
had to allow set_magic_quotes_runtime(0) to work WITHOUT an
E_DEPRECATED, don't remember if that ever made it in or not.
