Description:
------------
feof does not report TRUE when fopen failed thus any script that expects this will fail into an infinite loop. This has been reported before but that report is closed.

Reproduce code:
---------------
php -r "var_dump(feof(FALSE));"


Expected result:
----------------
bool(true)

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: feof(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in Command line code on line 1
bool(false)

Works just fine on my 4_4 from CVS.

I did check how to report a bug report and I provided reproduce code and expected and actual result. What's missing?

This is not considered to be a bug.

Even if your change request appear to be a good idea, some
applications may rely on this behavior and changing that may break
them.

Instead you may check your stream resources after opening them and/or
before calling feof().
