Description:
------------
strcspn() incorrectly stops on null characters, as if the function was implemented with null-terminated strings. Confirmed on  PHP 5.1.6-pl4-gentoo (cli), PHP 5.1.4 Windows NT mod_php, PHP 5.1.4 FC4 cli. 

Reproduce code:
---------------
print strcspn(chr(0),"x").", ".strcspn(chr(1),"x")."\n"

Expected result:
----------------
1, 1

Actual result:
--------------
0, 1
