Downgrading to PHP 5.3.19 resolved the issue. Is there something in the code that links Apache2 and
PHP 5.4.9 that could be causing this problem? It wasn't causing issues in 5.4.8

Description:
------------
Originally I thought this was an Apache bug since php://input held duplicate POST data. https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54218
- However, Perl correctly reads single values.

admin@summit:$/usr/sbin/apache2 -v
Server version: Apache/2.2.16 (Debian)

Test script:
---------------
<?
if(!empty($_POST)) {
  header("Content-Type: text/plain");
  echo file_get_contents('php://input');
  echo "\n=========================================================\n";
  var_dump($_POST); exit;
}
?>
This duplicates:
<form method="post" target="_blank">
    <input type="text" name="menu" value="Blah" />
    <input type="submit" />
</form>
<p>This doesn't:</p>
<form method="post" target="_blank">
    <input type="text" name="menu" value="Blah" />
    <input type="text" name="second" value="Second value" />
    <input type="submit" />
</form>

Expected result:
----------------
Output (first button):
menu=Blah
=========================================================
array(1) {
  ["menu"]=>
  string(4) "Blah"
}
Output (second button):
menu=Blah&second=Second+value
=========================================================
array(2) {
  ["menu"]=>
  string(4) "Blah"
  ["second"]=>
  string(12) "Second value"
}

Actual result:
--------------
Output (first button):
menu=Blahmenu=Blah
=========================================================
array(1) {
  ["menu"]=>
  string(13) "Blahmenu=Blah"
}
Output (second button):
menu=Blah&second=Second+valuemenu=Blah&second=Second+value
=========================================================
array(2) {
  ["menu"]=>
  string(4) "Blah"
  ["second"]=>
  string(12) "Second value"
}
