Description:
------------
When I perform a HTTP timeout using "stream_context_create", "stream_set_timeout" or "default_socket_timeout", timeout is doubled.

I did it on : 
- Windows XP SP2 + PHP-Cli 5.1.6
- Windows XP SP2 + PHP-Cli 5.2.9-2
- Debian 5 + PHP 5.2.0-8+etch13 (cli)

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$time = time();

// sleep-flush.php flush a text before sleeping 20 seconds
$f = @fopen('http://localhost/sleep-flush.php', 'r');
if( $f !== false ) {
	stream_set_timeout($f, 2);
	$content = stream_get_contents( $f );
	fclose($f);
}
echo 'Code #1: Duration = ', (time() - $time), "\n";

$context = stream_context_create(array('http' => array('timeout' => 3)));

$time = time();
// sleep do not flush text before sleeping 20 seconds
$f = @fopen('http://localhost/sleep.php', 'r', false, $context);
if( $f !== false ) {
	$content = stream_get_contents( $f );
	fclose($f);
}
echo 'Code #2: Duration = ', (time() - $time), "\n";

ini_set('default_socket_timeout', '4');

$time = time();
// sleep do not flush text before sleeping 20 seconds
$f = @fopen('http://localhost/sleep.php', 'r');
if( $f !== false ) {
	$content = stream_get_contents( $f );
	fclose($f);
}
echo 'Code #3: Duration = ', (time() - $time), "\n";

?>

Expected result:
----------------
Code #1: Duration = 2
Code #2: Duration = 3
Code #3: Duration = 4


Actual result:
--------------
Code #1: Duration = 4
Code #2: Duration = 6
Code #3: Duration = 8

And where are the sources for those server side scripts?

I did it on localhost and on a remote machine:

sleep-flush.php
<?php
echo 'start';
flush();
sleep(20);
echo 'sleep';
?>

sleep.php
<?php
sleep(20);
echo 'sleep';
?>

No, result is already : 
Code #1: Duration = 4
Code #2: Duration = 6
Code #3: Duration = 8

This remains a bug in 5.3.5 on Linux. Setting the timeout to 2 results in a 4s timeout, setting it to 4 results in an 8s timeout.

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

the value is used both for connection timeout, and then again for read timeout.
