Description:

When I have multiple globals they all seem to share the same storage location. When you have var1 and var2 changing either one's value will change both, etc.

Sample script:

<html>
<body>
<?php
        global $p,$q;

        $p = "1";
        $q = "2";
        
        echo "p=$p, q=$q<br>";
?>      
</body>
</html>

Result:

p=2, q=2

Should be:

p=1, q=2

Modules:

Just followed the quick build described in the INSTALL file. Using Apache 1.3.9 as server.

System Specifics:
Linux kernel 2.2.9
Mandrake 6.0
