Description:
------------
In the PHP documentation there is written:
"The HTTP Authentication hooks in PHP are only available when it is running as an Apache module and is hence not available in the CGI version."

In fact it DOES work for me.
I use php-cgi via FastCGI on Debian lenny with lighttpd and there IS a correct value in $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER']. What's happening here?

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
