I've noticed these messages and did some network traffic analysis.
I've tested this on Ubuntu and Chromium. What I've found is that Chromium has feature
called "Predict network actions to improve page load performance" and it's enabled by
default. It works this way, that if HTML page has links to some resources, than Chromium opens about
10 TCP connections in advance. And then if browser has less than 10 resources to fetch, unused
connections times out after 10 seconds. And this (empty payload) causes PHP server to display
"Invalid request (unexpected EOF)" message.
See: http://svn.php.net/viewvc/php/php-src/branches/PHP_5_4/sapi/cli/php_cli_server.c?revision=322966&view=markup#l1591
When you disable this Chromium's feature it doesn't open TCP connections in advance and
this error message disappears.
I'm wondering if we really need this error message (maybe it was used for some debugging
purposes).

if someone could test it, please.

Could this simply be caused by the "Connection: closed" message instead of the
correct "Connection: close" message the built-in server spits out? This is fixed
in trunk but hasn't been merged to 5.4 yet.

Most of the time, several of those messages appears in one block like in:
[Thu Dec 8 13:39:29 2011] 127.0.0.1:50358 Invalid request (Unexpected EOF)
[Thu Dec 8 13:39:29 2011] 127.0.0.1:50359 Invalid request (Unexpected EOF)
[Thu Dec 8 13:39:29 2011] 127.0.0.1:50360 Invalid request (Unexpected EOF)
[Thu Dec 8 13:39:29 2011] 127.0.0.1:50361 Invalid request (Unexpected EOF)
[Thu Dec 8 13:39:29 2011] 127.0.0.1:50362 Invalid request (Unexpected EOF)
I expect it comes from the fact that the page generated by the built-in server
contains references to pictures, js and css files that has been downloaded by
chrome through the built-in server. Does chrome do some special treatment? Can't
reproduce with a dummy page with just an Hello World.
