#38926 [Opn]: --zend-multibyte doesn't work for a few seconds on startup

ID: 38926 User updated by: lapo at lapo dot it Reported By: lapo at lapo dot it Status: Open Bug Type: mbstring related PHP Version: 5.2.8 New Comment: I've noticed --zend-multibyte always works if the module mbstring is NOT included, fails if it's there. Can the module interfere with the loading of .php? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-16 10:25:32] lapo at lapo dot it Re-opening as something clearly changed in the behavior in 5.2.6-5.2.8 changes (something erratically working became something that doesn't work at all). I will take a look at the diff myself in the weekend. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-16 10:22:13] lapo at lapo dot it Ah, something changed with 5.2.8 indeed: it now is always broken, doesn't fix after a bit like it did before. A bit more clarity about the test script, an hex dump: % hd checkUTF8.php 00000000 ef bb bf 3c 3f 3d 20 28 27 c3 a0 27 20 3d 3d 20 |<?= ('à' == | 00000010 22 5c 78 43 33 5c 78 41 30 22 29 20 3f 20 22 4f |"\xC3\xA0") ?
