PHP Parse Error on new PHP 5.3.2

As we were notified on our forums, the updated PHP 5.3.2 version seems to have changed a behaviour of quoting array variables within strings, which produces a PHP parse error on a serendipity file include/functions_entries.inc.php at line 1433 (in Serendipity 1.5.3).

The fix is actually quite easy, if you replace the code found at line 1433 from this:

serendipity_db_query("DELETE FROM {$serendipity["dbPrefix"]}entries WHERE id=$id");
serendipity_db_query("DELETE FROM {$serendipity["dbPrefix"]}entrycat WHERE entryid=$id");
serendipity_db_query("DELETE FROM {$serendipity["dbPrefix"]}entryproperties WHERE entryid=$id");
serendipity_db_query("DELETE FROM {$serendipity["dbPrefix2]}comments WHERE entry_id=$id");

to this:

serendipity_db_query("DELETE FROM {$serendipity['dbPrefix']}entries WHERE id=$id");
serendipity_db_query("DELETE FROM {$serendipity['dbPrefix']}entrycat WHERE entryid=$id");
serendipity_db_query("DELETE FROM {$serendipity['dbPrefix']}entryproperties WHERE entryid=$id");
serendipity_db_query("DELETE FROM {$serendipity['dbPrefix']}comments WHERE entry_id=$id");

If you can't easily spot the difference: It's changing ["dbprefix"] with double quotes to ['dbprefix'] with single quotes. We're sorry for this inconvenience, which is already fixed in our SVN branches and will be part of the next release.

Thanks a lot to fyremoon from the forums, this thread.
