I searched in predefined S_ALL constants and variables, but I did not find anything.

Test script:

  define (S_ALL, 'All');
  echo S_ALL;
?>

Expected result:
----------------
511

what do you mean by impossible to define a S_ALL?
 
<?php
define ("S_ALL", "511");
echo S_ALL;
?>

this works fine to  me.

When I assign any value to S_ALL, the value is always 511. Example script...

<?php
define (S_ALL,'Hi');
echo S_ALL;  //511
define (S_ALL,'asd');
echo S_ALL;  //511
?>

FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p3 #0, with php5-5.3.8

Somewhere else you already have defined S_ALL. So what you are doing is to register a constant using the value of S_ALL as name.  So will have a constant 511.

Try this:

define (S_ALL, 'All');
echo constant("511");

When declaring a constant the first paramter has to be a string with the name, so put it in quites.

define ('S_ALL', 'All');

Will give you an error.

The palce where S_ALL, most likely, is being defined is in the suhoshin extension your system seems to use.

Yes, you're right.
S_ALL defined in Suhosin-patch (5.3.8-0.9.10), in the file zend_errors.h.diff

 + # define S_ALL (S_MEMORY | S_VARS | S_INCLUDE | S_FILES | S_MAIL | S_SESSION | S_MISC | S_SQL | S_EXECUTOR)

this is the cause? Thanks.

Yet another reason not to use this patch. Also please report bugs only when you 
tested it without a patched version of PHP. We cannot provide support for patched 
version of PHP.
