Description:
------------
It looks like fgetcsv didn't free memory used for input buffer.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$f=fopen('file.csv','r');
$prev=memory_get_usage();
while($line=fgetcsv($f))
{
  unset($line);
  $now=memory_get_usage();
  echo ($now-$prev);
  $prev=$now;
}


Expected result:
----------------
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
0

or something oscilated around 0

Actual result:
--------------

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

The engine is expected to cache small memory chunks.
All real memory leaks are reported on shutdown.

Yea, sure. Tell it to my scripts. After parsing more than 20MB csv files scripts are killed cause memory exchaustion (64MB).

I tried to unset everything what is not used, but in every loop execution i loose few kilobytes.
