On this documentation page:

In Table 23-2. "CLI specific Constants"

on Row 3 (STDERR)

The Text:
"An already opened stream to stdout. This saves opening it with $stderr = fopen('php://stderr', 'w');"

Has the noted problem:
"An already opened stream to >>>>stdout<<<<. This saves opening it with $stderr = fopen('php://stderr', 'w');"

And should most likely read:
"An already opened stream to stderr. This saves opening it with $stderr = fopen('php://stderr', 'w');"

Thank you - the PHP team does Excellent work!
