It is a documentation problem then. I will update the doc. I will close
the bug once it is updated.

Numbers starting with 0 only are octal numbers.

I'm not sure about this problem. Allowing octal formats brings some
problems.

What is the normal octal format? 1666, is it the decimal 1666? or octal
1666 (950 in decimal). There is no standard like 0x1234 for the
hexadecimal format. If we define that an octal number must start with 0
(zero), it will then be easier. Not sure what is the less confusing
solution :)

Also in your example, it should 438 not 666, if you expect an octal
number.

Any other opinion?

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.2-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.2-win32-latest.zip

Seems to work in latest CVS.

Description:
------------
In correct return value for OCTAL representations
Also the ext/filter/tests/013.phpt file has an EXPECT of int(438) for
this test.

Reproduce code:
---------------
var_dump(filter_data("0666", FILTER_VALIDATE_INT,
array("flags"=>FILTER_FLAG_ALLOW_OCTAL)));

Expected result:
----------------
int(666)

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