Description:
------------
After updating from version 5.1.2 to 5.2.3 no more than 200 fields are being recognized in the $_REQUEST or $_POST array. 
Just sending 250 vars in a form results in just 200 variables.



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
if ($_POST['upload']==1)
{
	echo "Count: " . count($_POST);
	exit();
} else {
	$inputvars = "";
	for ($i=0;$i<250;$i++)
	{
	$inputvars .= "<input type='hidden' name='var".$i."' value='".$i."'>";
	}
?>
<html>
<body>
<form method='post' action='phpinfo.php'>
<input type='hidden' name='upload' value='1'>
<?= $inputvars?>
<input type='submit' name='button' value='go'>
</form>
</body>
</html>
<?
}
?>

Expected result:
----------------
Count: 252

Actual result:
--------------
Count: 200
