Description:
------------
The documentation for ob_start() states that passing the $chunk_size parameter as value 1 sets the actual chunk size to 4096.

That statement is no longer true on PHP6. It would be great if the documentation could explicitly state this change in behaviour.

(Some background: this was initially addressed as a functional problem under bug 46903, which made PHP6 behave like PHP5. However, this was reverted following discussion on the internals list: http://marc.info/?l=php-internals&m=123476465621346&w=2 )

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
