I wouldn't count on that. You probably have a better chance with
var_dump() which (apart from being more accurate) is used in unit
testing in the PHP code itself. E.g.:

http://svn.php.net/viewvc/php/php-src/trunk/tests/func/010.phpt?view=markup

I mean, they can change it whenever they want, but they'll break their
own tests.

(I hope you're are planning to write unit tests or something like that;
there are betters choices to store or transmit information.)
