The following file:

  http://www.kanga.nu/~claw/backslash.php
  http://www.kanga.nu/~claw/backslash.phps

Which reads:

--<cut>--<?

$var = <<< END_VAR
                /(o__.       _____|  \                     |OcO|

END_VAR;
?>

<html>
  <body>
  Boo!
  </body>
</html>
--<cut>--

Generates the following syslog warnings:

  Jul  6 16:12:47 bush apache: PHP Warning:  Unexpected character in input:  '\' (ASCII=92) state=5 in /home/claw/public_html/backslash.php on line 11
  Jul  6 16:12:47 bush apache: PHP Warning:  Unexpected character in input:  '\' (ASCII=92) state=5 in /home/claw/public_html/backslash.php on line 12

This is not the problem with reading \n in here files which was reported as the last fix.

Noet, there is a "\n" on line 11.  There isn't one however on line 12, which also reports an error (the last line of the image).

You need to escape backslahes in here-docs (\\)

Should be fixed in latest CVS.
You still better to escape backslashes, but the warning should go.
