[Mapserver-users] Error message getting eaten in 4.0?

[Daniel Morissette]

OK, I've added dumping of the whole error stack in PHP MapScript and in
the mapserv CGI in the 4.0 CVS... hopefully that will help.  I'm not
sure if something needs to be done for the SWIG versions, I'll leave
that to Steve and the other SWIG experts.
