This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation
better.

Description:
------------
The documentation for parse_str
(http://nz2.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-str.php) does not mention
that the setting of magic_quotes_gpc directly effects the operation of
this function.
Beside the fact that this is unexpected behaviour (religious wars about
the perceived value of MQGPC aside, any value you pass to parse_str, is
not part of get, post or cookies, unless it was getted, posted, or
cookied, in which case it's ALREADY been GPC'd and doesn't need to be
again) it should be made clear.
The documentation is also misleading by mentioning
magic_quotes_runtime, leading one to believe that only
magic_quotes_runtime affects it (which would be marginally more
sensible).
I have added a user note to the documentation, but I think it deserves
a warning style box because it is a bit of a gotcha.
