OSX Mountain Lion LAMP pear etc Install

If you are really lazy

Install your existing keychains on new mac (there are some files you can just copy, but i can't remember which so maybe give this a go): http://osxdaily.com/2012/07/05/copy-keychain-login-passwords-between-macs/

SSH

• turn on Remote Login from Sharing in System Preferences
• Run ssh localhost, the ctrl+c to cancel (cheap way to create the .ssh directory in home dir)
• Copy private key into .ssh dir and call it id_rsa (make sure perms are 600 or similar)

<?php
/**
 * A very edge case in PHP 5.4 regarding passing objects by reference. 
 * It seems to be a compound effect of using reflection to set an inherited method as 'available', 
 * AND that method taking an explicitly referential argument (&argument sig) 
 * AND then invoking it with func_get_args() as opposed to constructing the array of args manually.
 * 
 * No idea why these things all cause this behaviour or if they should.
 * 
 * Important to note that this effect isn't present in PHP 5.5.
