Not really a bug. More like a change in behaviour. The string embedded
variable handling in PHP3 only handles simple cases. The way around
the problem is to use: echo "normal string stuff ".$$var." more string stuff";
We will however consider this report a "request for feature" ;)

The following works under php2, but fails under php3:
$a="b";
$b="Test!!";
echo "$$a";
Php3 says: "$b";
Php2 says: "Test!!";
This breaks nearly all my apps... :-/
