Consider the code below, with error_repoting set to
E_ALL (2047) before the script start:

<?php 

$prev = error_reporting();
error_reporting(2046);
$new = error_reporting();

echo $prev . " -> " . $new;

//ini_set("error_reporting", $new);

phpinfo();

?>

This would set the error_reporting to 2046,
as returned and injected to the $new variable.
BUT phpinfo() will present 2047 as the local
value, instead of 2046. If you uncomment the
ini_set() call, you get the correct 2046 in the
phpindo() output. So error_repoting(..) and
ini_set("error_reporting"..) are not the same ;((

I have not tested this with ini_get, but IMHO

a) error_reporting() should be an alias for
   ini_get("error_reporting")

and

b) error_reporting(E_ALL) should be an alias for
   ini_set("error_reporting", E_ALL)...
