I acutally use the latest stable win32 snapshot from snaps.php.net and this problem has definatly been reproducable for the last week with the builds from there. The same is from for CGI or Apache Module My System: Windows 2000 Pro SP2 Dual Athlon XP (I haven't tried removing a CPU to see if it's a dual CPU issue yet) Apache PHP 4.2.4-dev (http://www.graftonhall.co.nz/test.php for php info screen) I am happy to supply more examples or test builds. How to reproduce: the file http://www.graftonhall.co.nz/temp/gettext/gettext.zip contains a test script and a single japanese translation that will cause this effect. The .mo and .po files are there. The script included is: <?php $lang='ja_JP'; @putenv('LANG=' . $lang); @putenv('LANGUAGE=' . $lang); setlocale(LC_ALL, $lang); // Specify location of translation tables bindtextdomain("broken", './locale'); // Choose domain textdomain("broken"); echo _("Birthday"); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19377&edit=1
