Description:
------------
http://cwin.dotgeek.org/mem.php
http://cwin.redirectme.net/mem.php

If an empty string like "" is passed to a function as an argument which then passes the argument to sqlite_escape_string($arg), the returned value will be random garbage. The returned value may contain words or useless data. It looks like its reading random memory.

Similar to bug 29339, but does *not* work when passing an empty string created in the function from which it is calling sqlite_escape_string

Reproduce code:
---------------
http://cwin.redirectme.net/mem.phps

This is affected: 
<?php 
function escapeSimple($str) { 
   return @sqlite_escape_string($str); 
} 
echo escapeSimple(""); 

?> 

whereas this is not:
<?php
echo sqlite_escape_string("");
?>

Expected result:
----------------
It should return/print nothing.

Actual result:
--------------
(Possibly) random characters.
