Working fine for me. https://3v4l.org/NKfA4

if I run this code from command line it works fine.
I get this problem only if I execute it through Apache (haven`t tried any other methods).

Is OPcache (or another bytecode cache) involved when you run on
Apache?

I did have opcache enabled by default.
After I disabled it, I get an expected result from code snippet reported.

I tried this code on PHP 5.5 and 7.0.8 and it worked fine with default settings. Though I don`t know if I had cache enabled and I don`t have those docker containers right now.

This bug has been open way too long.  Someone close it or fix it.  2016?  Give me a break.  4 years for a simple bug is ridiculous.

Happy to oblige. I can't reproduce this issue with or without opcache. If anyone can still reproduce this on a supported PHP version, please say so and I'll take another look.
