Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

This is deliberate. If there has been no output, PHP will send a HTTP 500 status to signal that something went wrong. PHP can not do this if out has already been sent, so you will only see this HTTP 500 error in case there was no output yet — and output buffering facilitates that.
