Comment:

 I tested the patch against low memory limit and it increased the memory
 limit to {{{32MiB}}}.

 I've found that PHP systems that don't have {{{--enable-memory-limit}}}
 while PHP was installed won't benefit from this system. Also, those PHP
 hosts that disable {{{ini_set()}}} will not benefit.

 I believe that it won't be a problem, since the functions make checks to
 see if increasing the memory is available and do nothing it is isn't. So
 those systems where either ini_set() is disabled or {{{--enable-memory-
 limit}}} wasn't used during the PHP install won't be affected.

 If someone can confirm, then I think the patch will be a good jump start
 towards improving the memory limit
