Description:
------------
Since upgrading to PHP 5.3.4 I'm finding that DateTime::__construct() emits an 
error of level E_WARNING instead of an Exception when passed an invalid date/time 
string.

Test script:
---------------
$date = new DateTime('foo');

Expected result:
----------------
An Exception should be raised.

Actual result:
--------------
An error of level E_WARNING.

I get the normal exception:

$ php
<?php
$data= new DateTime('foo');
?>
PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'DateTime::__construct(): Failed to parse time string (foo) at position 0 (f): The timezone could not be found in the database' in -:2
Stack trace:
#0 -(2): DateTime->__construct('foo')
#1 {main}
  thrown in - on line 2

Which warning are you getting?

Thanks for the reply Derick. I think this was a false alarm. I'm using the dbg 
debugging extension and it seems that having the option 'debugger.JIT_enabled=on' 
causes this problem. Once I changed this setting to off the problem didn't occur. 
I'll bring this up with NuSphere.

Sorry to waste your time,

Jeremy.
