Aaw, of course you are right. I changed the code for another test and forgot to revert the change
when I copied it into the mail.
So it seems like there is a bug. But what makes me wonder is that HHVM prints out the same result.
That's why I wanted to ask this mailing list as I assume that I am missing something :-/
Does anyone have an idea?
