Description:
------------
a bcompiled php script that has been compiled to into an executable on FreeBSD 9 (amd64) cannot be loaded by bcompiler_load_exe.

After diging a bit into the code

Test script:
---------------
Creating the output file:
<?php
        function main() {
                echo "hello world";
        }

        $fh = fopen("output", "wb");
        $size = filesize("phpe");
        $fr = fopen("phpe", "rb");
        fwrite($fh, fread($fr, $size), $size);
        $startpos = ftell($fh);

        $fh = fopen("output", "w");

        bcompiler_write_header($fh);
        bcompiler_write_class($fh, "test");
        bcompiler_write_function($fh, "main");
        bcompiler_write_footer($fh);
        bcompiler_write_exe_footer($fh, $startpos);
?>
Loading the file:
<?php
        bcompiler_load_exe('output');
        print_r(get_declared_classes());
?>


Expected result:
----------------
> Hello World

Actual result:
--------------
PHP Fatal error:  Could not find Magic header in stream in /root/ad/test.php on line 2

Fatal error: Could not find Magic header in stream in /root/ad/test.php on line 2

Debug log of the create script:

Debug log of the loader script:
[DEBUG] read magic: 3c 3f..
[DEBUG] read magic: dd 9b..
[DEBUG] move to start: -21
[DEBUG] done seek - try deserialize
[DEBUG] move to end: -25
[DEBUG]      scalar: 00000011 (size: 8, name: &pos)
[DEBUG]      read : 17

To me this looks like a x64 bug. 
bcompiler_load_exe seams to be using hardcoded 4 byte offsets for int serialized int values, while they're 8 byte wide.

Oups... in the create script I forgot a debug line.
here's the correct one:

Creating the output file:
<?php
        function main() {
                echo "hello world";
        }

        $fh = fopen("output", "wb");
        $size = filesize("phpe");
        $fr = fopen("phpe", "rb");
        fwrite($fh, fread($fr, $size), $size);
        $startpos = ftell($fh);

        bcompiler_write_header($fh);
        bcompiler_write_class($fh, "test");
        bcompiler_write_function($fh, "main");
        bcompiler_write_footer($fh);
        bcompiler_write_exe_footer($fh, $startpos);
?>
