Description:
------------
When calling igbinary_unserialize(FALSE) the return value is not the same as when calling unserialize(FALSE) - which is pretty bad for a drop-in replacement.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
var_dump(unserialize(FALSE));
var_dump(igbinary_unserialize(FALSE));
?>

Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)
bool(false)



Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)
NULL

Fixed in git.

still have to fix that test but for another reason :)

This bug has been fixed in SVN.

In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the
end of next Sunday (CET) on pecl.php.net.

In case this was a pecl.php.net website problem, the change will show
up on the website in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PECL better.
