Hi all, Please try 
<?
$dat=pack ("f", 1.1);
$ar=unpack('fx',$dat);
print 'x='.$ar['x'].'<br>';
?>

Output:

i reproduced that. seems that due to the fact that php's floats are actually doubles only half of the double gets initialized and should be initialized with 0.0 first.
 [2003-03-03 09:23 UTC] iliaa@php.net 
The optimal approach at solving this problem, would be to use doubles, since in PHP floats are emulated via doubles.
<?
$dat=pack ("d", 1.1);
$ar=unpack('dx',$dat);
print 'x='.$ar['x'].'<br>';
?>

correctly will return   ["x"]=> float(1.1)
