Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/language.operators.comparison
---
This page lists the Spaceship Operator "<=>" as a valid operator, but according to this RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/combined-comparison-operator, the implementation is not scheduled until PHP 7.  It is confusing to list it as a valid operator when the current released PHP does not support it.


Test script:
---------------
N/A

Expected result:
----------------
Remove the operator from the list until PHP 7 has been released, or at least make a note that it will not work in PHP 5.6.* or less.

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.

PHP version was added to the spaceship operator.
