Description:
------------
if data returned by a SOAP request begins with <![CDATA, another CDATA section is added by the SOAP server.

It looks like when a '<' is detected in the return string by the soap server, there is an automatic <![CDATA[ prefix added - even if the < is already the start of a CDATA statement.

Reproduce code:
---------------
data to be returned 
$maildetails = "<![CDATA[<?xml version="1.0" encoding="......";


Expected result:
----------------
<ns1:EmailDetails><![CDATA[<?xml version="1.0" encoding="

Actual result:
--------------
<ns1:EmailDetails><![CDATA[<![CDATA[<?xml version="1.0" encoding="

in fact, this 'bug' comes from using SOAP UI to generate the request and read the response. it's not a php bug at all.
