Description:
------------
In the english manual, on the page "XCVI. Session Handling Functions" (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php), there is an extremely odd and confusing sentence in the Caution box under example 3:

"Caution

If you are using $_SESSION and disable register_globals, do not use session_register(), session_is_registered() and session_unregister(), if your scripts shall work in PHP 4.2 and earlier. You can use these functions in 4.3 and later. "

Expected result:
----------------
Something less confusing and obfuscated.

I changed it to :

Before PHP 4.3, if you are using $_SESSION and you
have disabled register_globals, don't use 
session_register(), session_is_registered() or
session_unregister().

Is it less confusing ?
