Comment (by darkdragon):

 WTF? The '''ONLY TWO''' reasons this would not work on any host is if
 {{{--enable-memory-limit}}} switch was not used during the PHP
 installation. The second is if {{{ini_set()}}} is in the disabled function
 list.

 There is no other way to disable setting of the memory limit. Some hosts
 DO in fact disable {{{ini_set()}}} which is a problem with support
 tickets. However, your reasoning doesn't seem to ''me'' to be valid in the
 sense that either one of us has any statistics on the exact number of
 hosts.

 '''It will hurt no one by committing this patch, and will help some people
 if you do.''' So I mean, do you want to at least help some people that
 will benefit? You do want to help thost that will benefit don't you?
