Description:
------------
"return" can't be used after "or". I think it's strange because
"die" for example can be used after "or".

Test script:
---------------
<?php

function connect()
{
	mysql_connect('localhost', '', '') or return false;
	return 1;
}

$connect = connect();
if( $connect == 1)
	echo 'Successfully connected';
else
	echo 'Connect failed!';

Expected result:
----------------
Connect failed!

Actual result:
--------------
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'return' (T_RETURN) on line 5
