Is there any way to correct existing comments on the official PHP manual
pages? The manual is already noisy enough with all the outdated and IMHO
often rather unprofessional comments, and I'd hate to leave another
comment for the sole purpose of correcting someone else. In this case,
unfortunately, there is a typo in an otherwise very useful comment,
which could have (minor) security implications. I tried contacting the
author but got no reply. Do any of you know if there is a contact
address where corrections can be suggested? I noticed that some comments
appear to have been edited, possibly by a moderator, but I couldn't find
out how to contact that person.
Thanks.

File a documentation bug at http://bugs.php.net/ with the page the note's
on and (ideally) the note ID (the date/time permalink in the note header
includes it as the anchor) and one of us will have a look at it.
(Probably me, if you do it in the next few hours.)
Thanks,
Adam
