Zend Optimiser version 1.0.0 is installed.

PHP running on Apache-1.3.19

Including a file with an absolute reference to a URL fails to load the file completely - only part of the file loads resulting in incomplete HTML source.

Example: 
--
<?php
  include "http://www.example.com/foo.php";
?>
--

Example code attempting to be included:
--
<TABLE border="1"><TR><TD>Hello World</TD></TR></TABLE>
--

Example of PHP output (HTML source) when including this file:
--
TABL
--

As you can see, only a small portion of the file is actually included.

Removing the optimiser from our PHP install solves the problem; the file is included correctly.

This bug should be very easy to reproduce using the setup described here.

allow_url_open has been set to 1.

Please advise on either a workaround or when this bug is likely to be fixed; we are developing an intranet using PHP and this bug is quite an inconvenience.

Thanks,
- Bobby.
