Thank you for taking the time to report a problem with PHP.
Unfortunately you are not using a current version of PHP -- 
the problem might already be fixed. Please download a new
PHP version from http://www.php.net/downloads.php

If you are able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest
versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report
to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open".
Again, thank you for your continued support of PHP.

Don\'t lie about your versions, you have 5.2.0 and not 5.2.5. That bug you referenced was about 5.2.0, so obviously it\'s not fixed in 5.2.0.

hi,

i dont have anything, any reason to lie to you,
i selected 5.2.5, because it was nearest choice in your bug-submitting page. 

i know it is in fact, 5.2.0-8+etch10, as i sent you in first post..
so, think again before accusing someone with a lie.


lets come to bug:
i use debian, and debians package manager of apt-get.
it seems that debian has not updated its packages. am i right ?

i will just test with your latest version, then submit the result.

see you.
