Description:
------------
Hi,

In /ext/standard/var.c:

439                tmp_len = spprintf(&tmp_str, 0,"%.*H", PG(serialize_precision), Z_DVAL_PP(struc));


This is wrong on two levels:

the mismatch of arguments(2, instead of 1), and the invalid conversion.


Thanks

Same in /ext/pdo/pdo_stmt.c:
                        int len = spprintf(&p, 0, "%.*H", (int) EG(precision), Z_DVAL_P(param->parameter));

and in /ext/json/json.c:
                                        len = spprintf(&d, 0, "%.*k", (int) EG(precision), dbl);


and
                                        int l = spprintf(&tmp, 0, "%.*k", (int) EG(precision), d);

The * in the format indicates that a precision is provided. Thus the code is correct.

See spprintf implementation: http://lxr.php.net/xref/PHP_TRUNK/main/spprintf.c#306
