Description:
------------
The str_replace funtion doesn't accept the forth parameter in 4.3.2. The documentation says it will accept four parameters. We need to fix one or the other.

Reproduce code:
---------------
C:\PHP432>php -q
<? echo str_replace("dumb","dumber","dumb dumb dumb",$count); ?>
^Z
<br />
<b>Notice</b>:  Undefined variable:  count in <b>C:\PHP432\-</b> on line <b>1</b
><br />
<br />
<b>Warning</b>:  Wrong parameter count for str_replace() in <b>C:\PHP432\-</b> o
n line <b>1</b><br />

Currently from the manual:

Note:  As of PHP 5.0 the number of matched and replaced needles will be returned in count which is passed by reference. 

This eludes to the fact that the parameter exists since PHP 5.0.0 but can be made clearer.  Reclassified->docbug.

That's because the fourth parameter isn't available until PHP 5.0.

Direct from the manual:
