Reported By: remon at menpmedia dot nl
Status: Bogus
Bug Type: Class/Object related

New Comment:
You probably have zend.ze1_compatibility_mode enabled which causes the
behavior of php4 but it has bugs and is generally unused.

?????
Now I am really confused.
Im running Fedora Core 8 / x64, php 5.2.4, and i have the, by your
statement, incorrect result
I understand this has changed and I understand the implication (review
all our code which at this point amounts to several million lines of
code :( )
I also understand that i need to 'clone' an object. Shame that PHP4
doesn't understand this keyword and throws an error; so much for writing
universal code.
Thank you for all your comments and views.

I am running this on 64bit linux, and on 32bit as well. I get the same
correct result.

Thank you scottmac, this helps a bit.
Should I consider PHP5/x64/linux bugged then for NOT reflecting this
behavioural change ?

The behavior changed between php4 and php5. When you pass around an
object it uses the same instance.
The clone keyword will let you duplicate an object.
