I mailed to the php-dev list and got a reply _fast_! This is laready done in
CVS and will be out with the upcoming PHP 4.0.5. So we can change everything
back to nl2br - if we rely on people installing the new PHP release. Should
we do that? Why not? Any thoughts on this?

I would prefer using native functions (nl2br in this case) because they are
faster and less error prone.
