Script:
	<?
	echo '0+0=', 0+0, "\n";
	?>

Output of script on php 4.2.3:

	0+0=4294967294

which is equal to 2^32-2

(Output of script on php 4.1.2 and 4.0.6:
	0+0=4294967296
which is equal to 2^32).

In general, all simple additions and multiplications produce huge numbers:

	0+0=4294967294
	0+1=4294967295
	1+0=4294967295
	1+1=4294967296
	0-0=0
	0-1=-1
	1-0=1
	1-1=0
	0*0=3.5178585246345E+18
	0*1=3.5178585265101E+18
	1*0=3.5178585265101E+18
	1*1=3.5178585283857E+18
	0/1=0
	1/1=1
	2/1=2
	2/2=1

Installation issues
# gcc -v

# make

# cd ..
# cd apache_1.3.20
# configure --enable-module=most --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
# make
# make install

I don't know if it is very relevant but the rs6000 on which aix4.3 is running
is a 64bits machine. The c program
	int main()
	{
		printf("long=%dbits\n",8*sizeof(long));
		return 0;
	}
outputs 'long=64bits' when compiled with 'cc -q64', while when compiled
with 'gcc' it outputs 'long=32bits'.

Thanks very much in advance,
Rein van Vliet

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

string cancatination is done using . not , in PHP.
<?php
echo '0+0=' .  (0+0) .  "\n";
?>
Results in 0 on any platform.

I am sorry but on this specific platform
<?php echo (0+0); ?> does result in 4294967294, really!
And <?php $x = 0; $x = $x + 0; echo $x; ?> as well.

Could this be an issue with the C library used on AIX? On a 64 bit platform (64sparc) I cannot replicate the problem using PHP 4.2.3.

Seems a gcc bug.
Now PHP compiled with the native AIX C compiler
(and apache still compiled with gcc)
and it works.
