My server is set up to use utf8. I did not notice this problem when
using Latin1.

Description:
------------
include-ing a file that includes another file before producing any
output, results in a few invalid characters being emitted before the
<DOCTYPE> line
Reproduce code:
---------------
Create a file with any trivial content.
Include, require or require_once it from a second file. This second
file needs the php tags and the include line only.
Include this second file in a page like this (which is valid).
<?php // test0.php
require_once "test1.php";
?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html><head>
<title>Test Demo Page</title>
</head><body>
<p>This page has junk before the doctype</p>
</body></html>
Expected result:
----------------
The source should start with the "<" of the doctype line as its first
character.
Actual result:
--------------
In iIE source, you will see 6 squares before the <!DOC...
In Firefox validator it will complain about invalid characters in the
prolog.
If you move the content of the inner file up a level, all works
correctly.
