Steve,

If you want the mapscript/doc/mapscript.txt file (the source for  
http://ms.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/mapscript/index_html) to stay  
relevant, you should make the corresponding changes there as well. I  
think there have been a bunch of changes since 4.4 that haven't been  
noted in this documentation.
