I tested this bug down to 4.0.4. When I tested 4.0.3, the string matched. My os is SuSE Linux 6.4 with Kernel 2.2.14, my configure-string is ./configure \ --disable-debug \ --with-mysql \ --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs \ --enable-force-cgi-redirect \ --enable-discard-path \ --with-config-file-path=/etc/httpd \ --enable-ftp \ --with-gd=/usr/local \ --with-ttf \ --with-pdflib=/usr/local \ --with-zlib=/usr/local \ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local \ --with-png-dir=/usr/local \ --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local \ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local \ --with-png-dir=/usr/local \ --with-tiff-dir=/usr/local \ --enable-track-vars \ --enable-trans-sid mfg CK ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=9919&edit=1
