Description:
------------
On the function reference for preg_split, the limit option does not specify that the last element contains the remaining string. Compare with the split documentation, which does clearly state this and whose behaviour seems identical.

Currently the limit parameter provides different output for explode and 
preg_split() (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47560 and http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=48704)

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.
