Dying like this:
die(__LINE__);
Doesn't work, i.e the script dies without any output.

Still, this works as expected:
die(__FILE__);
As does this:
die('Gone to sleep at line: '.__LINE__);

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

die(number) will make PHP exit with exit code "number" and not show any message in this case. This is expected behavior and documented @ http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.exit.php

Not a bug. __LINE__ is an integer. If you give die() or exit() an integer, PHP will exit with that status. Using die((string) __LINE__) should work.
