It is impossible to pass parameters containing "-" or "+" when running php as command-line script.

Even a parameter like "test-2-test" (containing dash not as first character) or "+41123456789" will fail. 

For example   

    test.php3 test-2-test
or
    test.php3 +41123456789

will fail. I find no way to escape these characters to pass them. Maybe even more will be not allowed?

- seems to work OK, but + doesn't work indeed because of URL
translation.

I guess this is already done with CLI SAPI, isn't?
