Windows XP, PHP 4.3.0-dev as a module on Apache 1.3.24

In PHP 4.2.0, this script prints, as expected, "Constructor called - The variable is false"

In 4.3.0-dev-zend2-alpha1pl1, this script prints "Constructor called - The variable is true"

----------------------------------

class test{
	var $a;

	function test(){
		$this->a = false;
		echo 'Constructor called - ';
	}
}

$obj = new test;
echo 'The variable is ' . ($obj->a ? 'true' : 'false');
