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

This bug was submitted at Debian and after re-checking the manual I 
found no defined behaviour. But if ?>oops, something here<?php is 
not interpreted as an statement then the following script should not 
print "foo\n":

<?php
 if (false) {
    ?>nothing here<?php
 }
 if (false)
    ?>oops, something here<?php
    echo "foo\n";
?>

I believe there's a bug here, either in the interpreter or in the 
documentation.

No response to my last message?

I wouldn't call it a doc bug.  More like missing documentation.  But 
you submitted it as a scripting engine bug which it definitely is not.

Ok, changing its category.
