Comment:

 Well in PHP5 it will get passed by reference here.  But I believe in  PHP4
 it will not!

 So currently this works for PHP5 and not PHP4 I suspect (no PHP4 test
 setup here at the moment)

 So yeah we need to use references here otherwise the hooked function can't
 change what's in the $errors in all PHP versions.

 As for passing in the user_login and user_email I'm not sure why they
 should be treated as special here.  Why not just pass in the currently
 processed $user object?
