* PHP 5.3 compatibility fix for wfRunHooks() called with no parameters
An autoloaded 'Namespace' class alias is retained for compatibility with
extensions which haven't updated to the new class name... however they too
will break on PHP 5.3. Yay!
* $wgRequest shouldn't be used in functions like Article::doEdit() that are also called by API modules
* Moving code that decides whether the edit is bot out of DB logic and into UI logic: API and UI each decide indepentently from one another
* Removing $bot==='default' behavior from RecentChange::notifyEdit() and notifyNew(): nobody uses it, and it shouldn't be used anyway; whether the edit is bot should've been decided long ago
* Bug 9213: Fixed the plainly broken user_newtalk updating and caching scheme. I tried to keep my changes roughly performance-neutral, but the update on Wikimedia should be watched carefully for performance problems.
* Made UserMailer a class, use the autoloader to load it
* General UserMailer refactoring
* If the user has email-on-newtalk enabled, send them an email for every change, not just the first one before they view the page again.
* Don't add a watchlist entry automatically on change of user talk page
*Allow blocking of users to hide names
*Implement revision deletion for images/deleted files/deleted revs
*Log deletion set off for now
*Add 'hidden' file dir
*Dissallow merging via undelete (which was inefficient and hard to reverse)
*Use restore points and diffs to special:undelete
*Add a special page to merge pages
*Get changeslist to use tables to avoid ugly formatting
*Add logs into RC for rebuildrecentchanges.php
*Add private logs
*List private logs at specialpages
*Tweak/add some deletion and merge messages

I'm not sure how to phrase this for RELEASE-NOTES since I'm not sure what it does exactly; does it only affect extension-writers or something? From looking at the code I can't even see how the execution path is ever even followed, except maybe from maintenance scripts.
* Convert "$dbw =& wfGetDB( DB_MASTER );" --> "$dbw = wfGetDB( DB_MASTER );"
* convert "$skin =& $wgUser->getSkin();" --> "$skin = $wgUser->getSkin();"
For the time being have not changed the function definitions of wfGetDB() or User::getSkin() [i.e. they are still both return-by-ref], so as to ensure the interface does not change for extensions [some of which may still be trying to run on PHP4 environments]. However presumably at some point this can be changed too.
Also includes tiny tweak to newlines in parserTests - will show 1 rather than 2 newlines between the "Reading tests from" strings when in quiet mode.
* removing unused local vars
* removing used global declarations
* adding FIXMEs against extract() calls and lines that seem to be using uninitialized variables
* adding some array() declarations.
log entries.
* Also fixed it in the javascript recentchanges.
* Moved the value behind the page title to ensure the columns are still lined up
* Merged both sql patches into one.
* Set the default for both columns to NULL to make it work on edits before the db
update.

... There are certain to be other things too, so this is not intended to be comprehensive, rather the above just stops most of the notifications I observed.
* removing some unused global declarations.
* removing or commenting out or adding comments for unused local vars.
* Adding one or two local var declarations.
* Declaring $matches array passed to preg_match() / preg_match_all() as array() before using [not required, just have a slight preference for the explicitness].
* remove one or two pass-by-reference function declarations where the value is not modified.
* Adding some braces to if-else blocks.
* In Parser.php, stripstrate is now an object rather than an array as per r17820, so we no longer need ask for a reference to it (as in "$x =& $this->mStripState;"), and in fact it's probably just simpler to get rid of $x altogether.
* Moving some preg regexes from "" quoting to '' quoting to stop static analyzer whinging about bad escape sequences.
... up to "LinksUpdate.php" in the includes/ directory.
