But increasing the correctness or modernizing or style fixing etc is IMHO worth it. IMHO, the same goes for things like __P() and function declarations and definitions. I feel that any repo cost is well worth it in order to bring the code up to scratch with todays expectations. Once register is removed, it wont come back - it is not an endless tail-chasing type thing like whitespace fixes etc. Once it is fixed, it stays fixed.
