```
<?php
$funcName = chr(0xff).chr(0xff).chr(0xff).chr(0xff);
file_put_contents('test2.php', '<?php function '.$funcName.'() { echo
\'Hi\'; } ' . $funcName . '();');
```
This generates a PHP file which is not valid UTF-8. Yet the script works, and it would be correct if
we assume "U+00##" means "byte 0x##" and the spec defined its encoding as
"7-bit ASCII, where 0x80 to 0xFF are allowed"
