Description:
------------
If u assigned a variable x any value that starts with 0; like 09; then the value inside the varaible becomes 0.

This also happens when calling functions; paramters passed to the function suffer the same bug.


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

$VarX = 09;

echo "VarX = $VarX\n";
FunY(09);

function FunY($VarY)
{
        echo "VarY = $VarY\n";
}
?>

Expected result:
----------------
VarX = 09
VarY = 09

Actual result:
--------------
VarX = 0
VarY = 0
