'common.php' contains some class definition and PHP5 fails with 'PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class ... in common.php...' when script C.php starts. The file including map is: A.php: require_once(common.php) B.php: require_once(common.php) C.php:
    require_once(A.php)
    require_once(B.php)
That is bug? When only one file is included (A or B), the contents of 'common.php' is available, i.e. nested require works. Only fails when nested and multiple require. P.S. I use PHP5 RC2 running as CGI on WinXP/IIS. That seems to be the correct behaviour for
both PHP5 and PHP4. A class should never be defined twice - but that's the case when you include or execute somehow else the code with class definition (common.php) more than once.
