Description:
------------
For very large values of $x (9.2233720368548E+18 and more), sin($x) and cos($x) simply return $x

Test script:
---------------
$x = 9.2233720368547E+18;
var_dump(sin($x));
var_dump(cos($x));

$x = 9.2233720368548E+18;
var_dump(sin($x));
var_dump(cos($x));

$x = 9.2233720368547E+22;
var_dump(sin($x));
var_dump(cos($x));

$x = 9.2233720368547E+5;
var_dump(sin($x));
var_dump(cos($x));

Expected result:
----------------
float(0.70730241295515)
float(0.70691109527848)
float(9.2233720368548E+18)
float(9.2233720368548E+18)
float(9.2233720368547E+22)
float(9.2233720368547E+22)
float(-0.15745275115961)
float(-0.98752652174626)

And what do you get?

Which version of php do you? VC6 or VC9?

For the record, I can't reproduce this on 64-bit Linux or OS X, so this looks like it's Windows specific.

Thank you for reporting this.

This bug is reproducable on VC6, but this bug is not reproducable on VC9.

Moving forward, PHP is only supported on VC9.

Please upgrade to a PHP binary based on VC9 (the ZIP file you download will have 'vc9' in the filename).
