Comment (by jacobsantos):

 PHP 5.2.6:

 {{{
 #!php
 <?php

 error_reporting( E_ALL ^ E_STRICT ^ E_NOTICE ^ E_WARNING);

 echo $notsetbefore;

 mktime();
 }}}

 Results:
 {{{
 Strict Standards: mktime() [function.mktime]: It is not safe to rely on
 the system's
 timezone settings. Please use the date.timezone setting, the TZ
 environment variable
 or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those
 methods
 and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the
 timezone
 identifier. We selected 'America/Chicago' for '-6.0/no DST' instead in
 C:\wamp
 \www\testerrors.php on line 9

 Strict Standards: mktime() [function.mktime]: You should be using the
 time()
 function instead in C:\wamp\www\testerrors.php on line 9
 }}}

 {{{
 #!php
 <?php
 error_reporting( E_ALL ^ ~E_STRICT ^ E_NOTICE ^ E_WARNING);

 echo $notsetbefore;

 mktime();
 }}}

 Results:

 {{{
 Notice: Undefined variable: notsetbefore in C:\wamp\www\testerrors.php on
 line 7
 }}}
