Well, the only things I'm basing my suspicion on are the nature of the problem, the OS similarity and the fact that it seems to be difficult to reproduce the problem reliably. The major problem with this guess is that the original bug report does state that the bug did not show up under 5.2. >> I don't suppose you have a development environment on another >> machine where you can test another version of PHP? > > Assuming you mean a FreeBSD environment, nope :( but I will try on Linux > tomorrow. OK. I do think (as I'm sure you know) that the best test would be in a matching environment (since the result was reported to be different under Linux for that bug), but of course that's not always realistic. > Regards, > Szczepan Holyszewski I hope your problem can be resolved. If it does turn out to be a bug in PHP I hope that will be enough to convince your host to upgrade.
