Inconsistent arguments for ibase_query() and ibase_prepare()

[mlazdans]

From PHP manual:

1. Arguments for ibase_query() is not documented properly. They should be like this:

ibase_query(string $query [, mixed ...$bind_args]): resource
ibase_query(resource $link_identifier, string $query [, mixed ...$bind_args]): resource
ibase_query(resource $trans_identifier, string $query [, mixed ...$bind_args]): resource
ibase_query(resource $link_identifier, resource $trans_identifier, string $query [, mixed ...$bind_args]): resource

2. There is a typo in ibase_prepare(): string $trans should read resource $trans_identifier
3. To be more consistent I think arguments for ibase_prepare() should match ibase_query() but w/o bind args. E.g. for now you can do ibase_query($trans_id, ...) but can't do ibase_prepare($trans_id, ...)

Does anyone remember why do we have this function signature? ibase_query($link_identifier, $trans_identifier, ...)

If passing $trans_identifier then $link_identifier is redundant, isn't it?
