Description:
------------
php corrupts with the following error log:

This error happens when I test the video stream function and print the buffer read from a local media file. If client closes the internet connection for example by disconnecting wifi while the video is still playing and data is still downloading, print function will cause a segmentation fault.

The code comes originally from http://infinityquest.com/php-tutorials/program-http-range-in-php/ and the critical line number is #148. If we use echo instead of print, problem is then solved.


Test script:
---------------
// Move the proper place in the file
// And print out the requested piece in chunks
function send_range($handle, $start, $end) {
    $line_length = 4096; // magic number

    if (fseek($handle, $start) === -1) {
        error_log("Error: fseek() fail.");
    }

    $left_to_read = $end - $start + 1;
    do {
        $length = min($line_length, $left_to_read);
        if (($buffer = fread($handle, $length)) !== false) {
            // print $buffer;   // ***** BUG if use print *****
            echo $buffer;       // ***** ok *****
        } else {
            error_log("Error: fread() fail.");
        }
    } while ($left_to_read -= $length);
}
