Starting with PHP 4.2, the register_globals php.ini configuration
directive is set to Off. My assumption is that "Gallery" needs this to
be set to On to work correctly.

See http://us2.php.net/release_4_2_0.php for more details. Note that
it is easier to write insecure scripts when this is enabled, so
reenable this at your own risk.
