Description:
------------
In the server backends of XML_RPC2, the call to restore the custom error handler uses set_error_handler($oldErrorHandler). Because no second parameter is passed to this function call, the old error handler is called for the default error types (everything). The correct way to restore the error handler is to use the restore_error_handler() function.

For example, if I set a custom error handler that handles only E_NOTICE and then run an XML_RPC2 server, my custom error handler will run on all errors.

Test script:
---------------
The patch at http://worksintheory.org/files/pear/XML_RPC2-error-handler-20060905.diff fixes this bug against CVS.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

If this was a documentation problem, the fix will appear on pear.php.net by the end of next Sunday (CET).

If this was a problem with the pear.php.net website, the change should be live shortly.

Otherwise, the fix will appear in the package's next release.

Thank you for the report and for helping us make PEAR better.

Thanks again for the diffs.
