Description:
------------
When use in combination of stream_get_line and fseek,
reading a file which has only 2 lines without ending on EOF(like below) does fail.
This happens on only Windows and with only "2lines file without ending on EOF".



Reproduce code:
---------------
2lines.txt
--
a<CRLF>
b<EOF>

phpfile:
--
<?php
$file = dirname(__FILE__) . '/2lines.txt';
$fp = fopen($file, "rb");
var_dump(stream_get_line($fp, null, "\xd\xa"));
fseek($fp, ftell($fp)); // expected that this does not affect result.
var_dump(stream_get_line($fp, null, "\xd\xa"));

Expected result:
----------------
string(1) "a"
string(1) "b"


Actual result:
--------------
string(1) "a"
bool(false)

This is reproduceable on Linux too.

I can confirm this bug (on Ubuntu using PHP 5.2.10-2ubuntu6.5 with Suhosin-Patch 
0.9.7 (cli) (built: May 21 2010 06:30:21) )

Here is a workaround function I made that seems to work:

function stream_get_line_fixed($handle, $length, $ending) {
    // Only allow 3 tries since if there's a genuine failure we don't want to 
loop forever
    $tries = 3;
    $ret = FALSE;
    while ($ret === FALSE && $tries--) {
      $ret = stream_get_line($handle, $length, $ending);
    }
    return $ret;
  }

It seems fixed in 5.4 and later with linux. Closing.
If you have issue on Windows. Please re-open.
