Description:
------------
This a reminder bug for Ilia.

related to talk we had about a problem of zend-multibyte

references :

http://fudforum.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&goto=30765


This effectively brokes FUDforum installer.
 

Reproduce code:
---------------
I reduced a lilte test case 14 lines ( and most code has been taked directly from the PHP documentation)

http://cl.php.net/manual/en/function.halt-compiler.php

it's available here :

http://www.onfocus.cl/judas/halt_compiler.php.bz2


the binarty part of the file just contains a bziped text file containing "This is a test string".

Tested very latest CVS 5.1.3.RC2-dev code.
this seems to be a regression of 

http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35147

Expected result:
----------------
php compiled without --enable-zend-multibyte displays

string(65) "
BZh91AY&S�S@" 1�)Q^�
                    T,"(H~
                          t"

AFAIK, correct output, the binary data.

Actual result:
--------------
php compiled with zend multibyte:

in a web browser : nothing, ( not even binary content)
in cli : a lot of interrogation signs(??????????????????????????????????????????)

Workaround : setting detect_unicode to Off make the things work as expected.

php -ddetect_unicode=0 halt_compiler.php
works fine.

This is not a PHP bug, but FUDforum installer's.

It should be fixed using -ddetect_unicode=0 (in the same way as PEAR installer was fixed).

Probably PHP documentation should explain that binary data after __halt_compiler() may drive multibyte PHP version to detect whole script as unicode.

:S how this cannot be a bug if the engine behaves different in cases that should behave indentical ?

well.. then if this won't be fixed, fudforum installer should be fixed, and the PHP documentation should mention the bug,as a side effect...

We don't have even detect_unicode documented.

Log: detect_unicode before __halt_compiler (bug #36711)
 [2009-11-23 13:19 UTC] vrana@php.net
This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
