See http://bugs.php.net/?id=48612 "Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. And RTFM". (RTFM is my interpretation of the rest).

Btw, I brought it up here already: http://marc.info/?l=php-general&m=124487699630514&w=2 /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (23.1°C) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
