Comment:

 This is a feature, not a bug.

 First, closing PHP tags are optional.

 More importantly, since this is a user-edited file, it's highly likely
 that someone's text editor will add a line break after the closing tag,
 causing error messages that aren't immediately traceable.  Leaving off the
 closing tag avoids that headache.
