Changing the error reporting level inside a scirpt useing the error_reporting() function does not work if @ is present before the function.

Ex.
(assuming php.ini has error_reporting set to E_ALL)

<?php
@error_reporting(E_ALL^E_NOTICE);
echo $a;
?>

Would still generate a warning about an undefined variable.

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL^E_NOTICE);
echo $a;
?>

Works fine without any warnings.

This is not a bug, the error_reporting value is deliberately modified by @ (it's set to 0 before the call to the function, and restored to the original value from before the call). Thus the modified value gets lost here.
Feel free to open this as a feature request if you find it really neccesairy to make this work.
