Bug #2337 Referencing an array's element returns only 8k data

I'm using Debian Potato's deb packages (3.0.12-5).

I used a file in which lines are longer than 8k.

When I read a file into an array with the "file" function and after I use "join" to join the elements into a string, the length of the joined string equals with the file's size.

But when I try to extract an item from the array, I only get back 8190 byte.

The problem only occurs when I use an array which is constructed by "file".

script to test with:
<?

$array = file("test.txt");
$file = join("",$array);
$size = filesize("test.txt");

echo("Reading the file into an array...\nFilesize: $size, Read in: ".strlen($file)."\n\n");

$file = file("test.txt");
$first = $file[0];

$file = fopen("test.txt","r");
$second = fgets($file,1000000);
fclose($file);

echo("Reading with \"file\" and \"fgets\"...\nFirst: ".strlen($first)." Second: ".strlen($second)."\n\n");

?>

test.txt's first line must be longer than 8190 bytes!

Thanks, Thifi
