Description:
------------
It?s simple: bcsqrt doesn?t work at all, it?s always causing a crash unlike sqrt, which works! I dunno if bcsqrt working in other php version.

I?m installed the php 5.01 win-binary version (zip) from php.net.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?PHP
bcscale(32);
echo bcsqrt('45.0');  //causes crash
?>

or

<?PHP
bcscale(32);
echo bcsqrt(45.0);    //causes crash too
?>

or

<?PHP
bcscale(32);
echo bcsqrt(45);    //always crashing, yeah
?>

Expected result:
----------------
result should be similar to what sqrt(45) returns.

Actual result:
--------------
A nice reproducable crash in apache:
AppName: apache.exe	 AppVer: 2.0.47.0	 ModName: php5ts.dll
ModVer: 5.0.0.0	 Offset: 0008238f

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5-STABLE-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.0-win32-latest.zip

Seems to work fine with latest CVS, the result is  
6.70820393249936908922752100619382 for all 3 sample codes.

True, since I only got 56k I usually don?t update that often but the latest CVS snapshot works. Might be closed then. Thanks for your help :)

well, I can close myself, do I? Let?s check...

Yes, but since this was actually a duplicate of a bug that was already fixed (which is why the snapsshot works for you) it should actually be marked 'Bogus'.  Nothing personal about you or the bug, just part of the statistical analysis.

Actually, I now know what caused the problem:
The problem was the file php5ts which I once copied to C:\windows\system32\
for some reason I don?t now heh. Well, this was really stupid. I wonder why bcsqrt() worked after I unzipped php5-dev snapshot till I switched apache 2 from *.47 to *.50 and restarted my computer.
However, It seems I worked with a pre-php distribution version all the time...damn. No wonder that this bug has been fixed already...how could I notice that then;)
