Ok...first of all it's a stupid bug:)

I made a include file "func.inc.php" and wanted to include config.inc.php. But instead of including config.inc.php i included func.inc.php:)

The result was that my "server" started reading and was hang completely because he always tried to include "func.inc.php" when he started with "func.inc.php" :)

PHP3 says that i can't redeclare my functions and i hope that PHP4 will do this as well in the future.

If you upgrade to php4.0.1pl2 or better, you will get a
segmentation fault instead of hanging. Still not ideal,
but better until it's fixed.

There is include_once() which should be used instead.

current versions (tested 4.0.1pl1) fail with a 
"Fatal: emallo(): unable to allocate ... bytes"
when no more memory is left or with 
'cannot redeclare function' if a function 
definition is in place ahead of the circular 
include
