Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

The second parameter was introduced on 5.3 version, as documented in the 'Changelog' section in the documentation.

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't scrolled down to the changelog ...
