Bug description:microtime(true) reports milliseconds, not microseconds

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.microtime%23Return%20Values
---

When using the argument $get_as_float with value TRUE, the returned result
has a precision of milliseconds instead of microseconds 



Test script:
---------------
<pre><?php

echo '         time(): '.time()."\n";
echo 'microtime(true): '.microtime(true)."\n";
echo '    microtime():          '.microtime()."\n";


Expected result:
----------------
         time(): 1314699839
microtime(true): 1314699839.77298801
    microtime():          0.77288801 1314699839

Actual result:
--------------
         time(): 1314699839
microtime(true): 1314699839.7729
    microtime():          0.77288801 1314699839
