Description:
------------
When a program is executed via one of PHP's program-execution functions, it is unable to accept input from the command line. This prevents interactive CLI programs from actually being interactive.

I believe this is a regression in PHP 5.2.2, as 5.2.1 and 4.x behave as expected. It may be related to the fix for bug #33664.

Also see bug #41874.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

passthru('pause');

echo "You pressed a key, exiting now";

?>

Expected result:
----------------
C:\>php-5.2.1-Win32\php test.php
Press any key to continue . . .
You pressed a key, exiting now
C:\>

Actual result:
--------------
C:\>php-5.2.2-Win32\php test.php
Press any key to continue . . . ^C
C:\>x

Note: Nothing happens when a key (in this case "x") is pressed. The script hangs until terminated with Ctrl+C.
