Description:
------------
The function apache_setenv has a boolean parameter walk_to_top, as does apache_getenv.

There is no documentation on what this parameter does, how it alters the results or what it means.  It is simply listed as a valid parameter.

A google search for walk to top didn't turn up anything obvious and it does not appear to be a commonly used apache term.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

It seems that it is possible to set an environment variable available only to the "PHP layer" in Apache or a top-level variable available to all Apache "layers".

"Whether to get|set the top-level variable available to all Apache layers." by walk_to_top description.
