Description:
------------
If you use mbstring.func_overload in php.ini various string functions will be overloaded with their mb_* equivalents.

The mb functions will trigger warnings when certain parameters are empty or null unlike their native counterparts.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

var_dump(strrpos('', '/'));
var_dump(mb_strrpos('', '/'));

?>

Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)
bool(false)

Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)
Warning: mb_strrpos(): Empty haystack in /home/vbulletin/public_html/dev/test.php on line 4
bool(false)

I'm reporting inconsitent behaviour, either add the same error message to strrpos or remove it from mb_strrpos.

Probably add it to strrpos and strripos since the majority fo the native string functions throw warnings on invalid parameters.

Please provide a list of functions that differ from native functions.

Hi!

It would be better not to give E_WARNING. If you search something in an empty string then you will not find it. There is no special things around here that needs to be "warning-ed". I had to write "if"s around many strrpos() and strpos() calls when switched my site to UTF-8.

Regards, Nil.
