I'm guessing that the error message has MORE information than that --
like the line number of the file in which the output occurred.
I'm also guessing that it's the LAST line of the file with the
"encodeDomain" function in it that you "include" in your test.php
I'm also guessing that there's a NEWLINE character after the final ?>
in that file on your 5.0.4 box, but that NEWLINE character is *NOT*
there on your 4.0 box.

Sort of.
Apache may be buffering output, or you may even have output_buffering
set to "on" in php.ini or gzip may be involved and buffering or...
But as far as PHP is concerned, the headers went "out" even if
somebody else somewhere is buffering them and you don't see any
output.
