In the example below the gpc_order entry has the value "GPC" that should
be imported in the configuration hash as a 3 bytes long string. But it
is imported as 5 bytes with two zero bytes after the "GPC" characters. The patch to configuration-scanner.l is below the example.

<?
        $i = parse_ini_file("/usr/local/lib/php.ini");
        print(addslashes($i["gpc_order"]));
        print("\n");
?>
