If you have a script that talks to a MySQL db and includes an inc in another directory with the login part of the script and you mistype the start as >?php instead of <?php then php returns the text of the inc file ( which contains the ip address, username and password of the mysql server )
This is what the script returned ( with real info which I have removed )

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="no"?>
>?php
#
#dbconnect.inc
#
function &dbconnect()
{
	$link=@mysql_connect ("172.nnn.nnn.nn","xxxxx","yyyyyy");
	if ($link && mysql_select_db ("pwtdb"))
	{
		$dbok="True";
		return $dbok;
	}
	else
	{
		$dbok="False";
		return $dbok;
	}
}

<b>Fatal error</b>:  Call to undefined function:  dbconnect() in <b>/usr/local/apache/htdocs/pwtvalidate.php</b> on line <b>37</b><br>

PHP can not guard for typing errors. It's your own responsility.
Not a bug > bogus.
