note 30279 added to function.require

If you use (require|include)[_once], to return values, like so: . . . $val = require('foo.php'); . . . you may encounter problems, including Apache seg faults, when using this returned value. For example, if the aforementioned foo.php looks like this: . . . return array(1,2,3); . . . and you use the $val for something, it may not contain the value you expect it to, or it may seg fault your php process. Regardless of the action it causes, you can prevent it by doing this instead: . . . $ret = array(1,2,3); return $ret; . . .
