(I'm aware I did receive it -- just didn't have the chance to reply to it when I got up. you might not have read it yet). We really don't want read()'s behavior to change according to the php.ini. We try to keep these kind of INI directives as a minimum in the PHP project. Think of it this way. Say you are using two PHP packages, Phorum and Phplib. Each one was coded with a different INI setting for read(). If you wanna run both on the same web site you have a problem. So either make this two distinct functions or pass a flag to it. It's behavior should not depend on the INI file. I understand the comment -- and made changes appropriately locally to use a 4th parameter for choosing such behavior so it behaves consistently. I'll commit the patch as soon as I make sure it works as I expect it to..
