Re: socket_send() ...also a bug?

It's documented on http://www.php.net/manual/en/zend.arguments.retrieval.php It's a kind of promoting binary safety. Not the passed number of parameter passed to zend_parse_parameters() is important but what modifies are used to describe the parameters. Since a string is not only meant to be characters from A-Z but in fact can be anything including binary data, it's a good idea [tm] to always get the point to the string AND it's length and work with both when making further function calls (if possible).
