In bug report 18022 you said that you have fixed the bug that only lets php read the first line from stdin when used in a pipe.  I am still finding this bug.

The code i use is:
#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
<?PHP
$fp = fopen("php://stdin", "r");
$username = $argv[1];
$mail = "";
while (!feof($fp))
    {
    $mail = $mail.fgets($fp, 4096);
    }
print($mail);
fclose($fp);
?>

This only prints the first line of any file I pipe to it using cat.

PHP was compiled with:
'--with-pgsql' '--enable-cli' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-sockets'.

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:

and make sure you're really using the CLI binary..

The latest version does not ocmpile with these options.  It stops due to a long line!
This line starts as:
/bin/sh libtool --silent --mode=link gcc -export-dynamic -g -O2  -L/usr/ucblib

and ends as
ernal_functions.lo -lpq -lcrypt -lresolv -lm -ldl -lnsl -lsocket -lgcc -lcrypt  -o sapi/cgi/php-cgi

As for version 4.2.3, I cannot be sure that I am using the cli version - the output is still full of html.  However, the binary that is used appears to be the same size as the one that is in sapi/cli so I am guessing that this is it.

To get the snapshot build, you need to install GNU sed.
(the sed in Solaris is broken)

It seems to work fine in the most recent build.

Thanks!
