Documentation says that when 1 is supplies as the optional third parameter of 
a "define" statement, the constant will be case insensitive. It appears this isn't true,
and the "1" seems to be ignored.

define("NL", "<BR>", 1);

should allow me to use nl but it seems to be undefined.

Manual is propably speaking about PHP 4... Not sure if PHP 3 has it.

We are sorry, but can not support PHP 3 related problems anymore.
Momentum is gathering for PHP 5, and we think supporting PHP 3 will
lead to a waste of resources which we want to put into getting PHP 5
ready. Ofcourse PHP 4 will will continue to be supported for the
forseeable future.
