Public bug reported:

I am porting my working instance of mahara 16.04 (debian, php 5.5) to a
new server (ubuntu 16.04, php 7.04, using git for installation). Just by
chance I stumble upon some crashes which seem to be related to using
deprecated PHP functions. At this time I found (and easily repaired) the
following files needing fixing for PHP 7:

root@QSKW001:/var/www/mahara# git status
On branch 16.04_STABLE
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/16.04_STABLE'.
Changes not staged for commit:
  (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
  (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)

	modified:   htdocs/lib/antispam/SimpleSpamTrap.php
	modified:   htdocs/module/multirecipientnotification/inbox.php
	modified:   htdocs/module/multirecipientnotification/lib/activityextend.php
	modified:   htdocs/module/multirecipientnotification/outbox.php

the first one needing preg_match instead of eregi

diff lib/antispam/SimpleSpamTrap.php ../../mahara-16.04.0/htdocs/lib/antispam/SimpleSpamTrap.php
25c25
<         if (preg_match("/^[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}$/i", $email)) {
---
>         if (eregi("^[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}$", $email)) {

while the other ones simply needed explode instead of split, e.g.:

root@QSKW001:/var/www/mahara# diff htdocs/module/multirecipientnotification/inbox.php ../mahara-16.04.0/htdocs/module/multirecipientnotification/inbox.php
78c78
<         explode(',', $type),
---
>         split(',', $type),
179c179
<         $types = explode(',', preg_replace('/[^a-z,]+/', '', $type));
---
>         $types = split(',', preg_replace('/[^a-z,]+/', '', $type));

These are just quick hacks by me working up to now.
