Expected result:
----------------
The function should return an associative array containing all headers which are present in raw headers representation.

Actual result:

That's a decidedly odd encoding for the Subject -- neither iconv nor mbstring 
support it, which is presumably why the function is bailing.

Realistically, though, iconv_mime_decode_headers() should be doing something more 
useful than silently discarding the remaining results, so I'll have a looksee if 
we can at least raise an error rather than returning an incomplete result.

This bug has been fixed in SVN.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change
will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at
http://snaps.php.net/.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

Well, that ended up being a bit more interesting than I expected. The
new behaviour will be to leave the offending header undecoded if and
only if ICONV_MIME_DECODE_CONTINUE_ON_ERROR is set -- the only other
options are really to swallow the content whole, which seems even worse.

This big has become an issue for anyone still on PHP 5.2 and has PCI compliance 
concerns. PHP 5.2.x is affected and this fix was not applied to PHP 5.2 even 
though it was reported against PHP 5.2.14. It is only fixed in PHP 5.3.4 and 
above. I just tried the test script on a PHP 5.2.17 install and it failed.
