obj == null checks now trigger E_NOTICE

class Foo {
}

$t = new Foo();

if ($t == null) {
}

Notice - Object of class Foo could not be converted to boolean


Changing the comparison to $t === null makes the notice go away.  Is
this intended?  If not I can post it as a bug report.

Thanks,
Hans

I already fixed this. We added a bit too aggressive notice :) Now it's not
quite as aggressive as I would like it to be but it behaves like in PHP 4.
