I have had 23 reports of this bug via the Bug Report form on my
website. Once again I'm taking the blame for bugs in get_browser().

Description:
------------
When Apache starts with a new version of Gary Keith's 
browscap.ini, PHP reports an error:

PHP:  Error parsing /Library/WebServer/browscap.ini on 
line 711

Line 711 reads:

browser=Yahoo! Slurp

Seems PHP's ini-file reading routine does not like the 
bang in the browser name?

Reproduce code:
---------------
Download the 2/23/2004 or later browscap.ini (or download and unpack
browscap.zip) from www.garykeith.com.

Configure php.ini to point to this file.

Stop and restart Apache.

Expected result:
----------------
PHP should read in and accept the file without error.

Actual result:
--------------
PHP reports an error during Apache startup.

All browscap.ini entries before line 711 are loaded.

All entries after that are not.

Since browscap.ini is currently 18682 lines long, this 
means most entries are not loaded.
