Description:
------------
cyte from php.net/socket_read :

Return Values

    Note: socket_read() returns a zero length string ("") when there is no more data to read.

//

Ive downloaded today PHP 5.2.5 sources from php.net site. Compiled it. Start my server and saw that it: returns FALSE on 'NO MORE DATA TO READ'

//

I think it is a bug;

Reproduce code:
---------------
php-5.2.5/ext/sockets
isn't it a patch ?

"socket_read() returns the data as a string on success, or FALSE on error (including if the remote host has closed the connection). The error code can be retrieved with socket_last_error()."

What happens is that the remote closed the connection..see also bug #28141
