Description:
------------
fgets' manual page states in the main description that "If no length is specified, the length defaults to 1k, or 1024 bytes.". However, this is only valid for PHP between 4.2 and 4.3 which makes this statement quite old and deprecated.

In my opinion, we should merge the note about the 4.3+ behavior in the main description.

The patch follows:

Thanks in advance

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.

Patch applied.
