New Comment:
real files in real use in the real world don't go by that variation.
anything right of the = is treated as plain text. there needs to be at
bare minimum a flag to turn off the double quotes requirement. One
example being the editing of third part programs where you can't just
introduce double quotes and not have things break.

Says the documentation:
"Note: If a value in the ini file contains any non-alphanumeric
characters it needs to be enclosed in double-quotes (")."
"... Characters {}|&~![()" must not be used anywhere in the key and
have a special meaning in the value."

Description:
------------
if a ini file has a "(" or ")" in it the parse_ini_file function will
end on the character before the "(" or ")". in some cases or remove the
"(" and ")" or just dump everything between the "(" and ")".
In a nut shell it hates "(" and ")" for some reason.
Reproduce code:
---------------
sample "demo.ini" file:
[demo]
a=1
b=(
c=3
php -r "print_r(parse_ini_file('demo.ini', true));"
Expected result:
----------------
Array
(
[demo] => Array
(
[a] => 1
[b] => (
[c] => 3
)
)
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: Error parsing demo.ini on line 3
Array
(
[demo] => Array
(
[a] => 1
[b] =>
)
)
