When i create a piece of code with eval like :

eval = "if (!isset(\$$value)) {";
eval .= "  return 0; "
eval .= "}";
eval("$eval");

The return statement doesn't work.
It works with earlier versions of php. (php3).

It does work with a CVS snapshot.

<?php

$eval = "return 123;";

$e = eval("$eval");

var_dump($e);

?>

OUTPUT

int(123)

You also did not have a ";" terminating your return 0 line.  Fix your code and try again.  If the problem persists try a CVS snapshot from http://snaps.php.net and reopen this report.
