I'm pretty sure this has been fixed since 7.1.9 and since 7.2.0beta2

You said 'version irrelevant' - did you check up to date versions and are seeing something different, or did you just assume it affected all versions?

it is fixed at least in 7.1.10 and hence "irrelevant" is always wrong to start with following http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#beprecise

This bug has been fixed with <http://git.php.net/?p=php-src.git;a=commit;h=c562d44>,
but probably should have a NEWS entry, pointing to this ticket.
