Reproducing script:

<?php

function f()
{
	$data = ob_get_contents();
	while(@ob_end_clean());
	ob_start('ob_gzhandler');
	
	$step = strlen($data)/2;
	echo substr($data, 0, $step);
	ob_flush();
	echo substr($data, $step);
}

register_shutdown_function('f');

ob_start();

Sorry, this bug is not entirely fixed.

Reproducing Script:
Similar to the previous one, but with an additional ob_end_clean()

<?php

function f()
{
	$data = ob_get_contents();
	while(@ob_end_clean());
	ob_start('ob_gzhandler');
	
	$step = strlen($data)/2;
	echo substr($data, 0, $step);
	ob_flush();
	echo substr($data, $step);
}

register_shutdown_function('f');

while(@ob_end_clean());

ob_start();
echo '<pre>';
readfile(__FILE__);

?>
