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

<?php switch ($a) : ?> <?php case 1: ?>

is essentially the same as

<?php switch ($a) : echo " "; case 1: ?>

which obviously is wrong.
