Specifically: * $argi is always 0 * $argn always has the last character cut off I've confirmed it works as expected in PHP 5.6.14 on OS X, whilst it's broken in 7.0.2 on OS X and master on Ubuntu. I'm not very good at C, so i don't have a patch, i'm sorry. Test script: --------------- % php -R 'echo "${argi}\n";' <<< $'foo\nbar' % php -R 'echo "${argn}\n";' <<< $'foo\nbar' Expected result: ---------------- % php --version | head -1 PHP 5.6.14 (cli) (built: Oct 3 2015 14:54:13) % php -R 'echo "${argi}\n";' <<< $'foo\nbar' 1 2 % php -R 'echo "${argn}\n";' <<< $'foo\nbar' foo bar Actual result: -------------- % php --version | head -1 PHP 7.0.2 (cli) (built: Jan 7 2016 10:40:26) ( NTS ) proserpina:php % php -R 'echo "${argi}\n";' <<< $'foo\nbar' 0 0 proserpina:php % php -R 'echo "${argn}\n";' <<< $'foo\nbar' fo ba ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71624&edit=1
