Description:
------------
It seems that all these receive related functions return junk. They just sometimes return 2000.
Before i downloaded a snapshot 5.0.x-dev they were returning not only 2000, but other text such as "10c" "2b3" etc.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$fp = @fsockopen($dom, 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
stream_set_timeout($fp,20);
...
while (!feof($fp)) {
	$result = fgets($fp, 4096);
	if($result !== FALSE)
		$out .= $result;
}
...
echo $out;

Expected result:
----------------
<HTML>
<BODY>
The test
Other text
</BODY>
</HTML>

Actual result:
--------------
<HTML>
<BODY>
2000
The test
2000
Other text
</BODY>
</HTML>

It seems that it still returns not only 2000, but also other text.

Can you provide a test script that we can actually run?
(a PHP script starts with <?php and ends with ?> ..)

<?php
	$dom = "www.google.co.uk";
	$fp = @fsockopen($dom, 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
	$req = "GET /search?hl=en&q=test&btnG=Google+Search&meta= HTTP/1.1\r\n";
	$req .= "Host: $dom\r\n";
	$req .= "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n";
	$req .= "Content-Length: " . strlen($pv) . "\r\n";
	$req .= "Connection: Close\r\n\r\n";
	stream_set_timeout($fp,20);
	fwrite($fp, $req);
	while (!feof($fp)) {
		$result = fgets($fp, 4096);
		if($result !== FALSE)
			$out .= $result;
	}
	fclose($fp);
	echo $out;
?>

Read the HTTP 1.1 spec.
You've just discovered chunked encoding.
