If matches are found for parenthesized substrings of
pattern and the function is called with the
third argument matches, the matches will be stored
in the elements of the array matches.
If no matches are found, matches is set to an empty
array.
$matches[1] will contain the substring which starts at the first left parenthesis; $matches[2] will contain the substring starting at the second, and so on. $matches[0] will contain a copy of the complete string matched.
Returns whether pattern matches string.

This function returns true on success now. Previously, it returned the byte length
of the matched string if a match for pattern was found in
string and matches was passed.
If the optional parameter matches was not passed or
the length of the matched string was 0, this function returned 1.

mb_eregi() will now set matches to
an empty array, if nothing matched. Formerly,
matches was not modified in that case.
