Description:
------------
I experienced odd things testing code that was working with 5.2.19.

It look like reading a file with file_get_contents using a streamwrapper class 
destroys some part of the zend engine. After reading the file all sorts of odd 
problems occur.

I tracked it down to undefined variables returned by stream_stat() in my stream 
wrapper class. Casting the values to an integer fixes it.





Test script:
---------------
class StreamWrapper {
  public function stream_stat() {

    return array(
      'atime' => $this->notset,
      'mtime' => $this->notset,
      'ctime' => $this->notset,
    );

  }
}

Here is an entire script:

# php x.php

Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in x.php on line 30


<?php

class sw {

    public function stream_open($path, $mode, $options, &$opened_path) {
        return true;
    }

    public function stream_read($count) {
		return FALSE;
    }

    public function stream_eof() {
        return true;
    }

	public function stream_stat() {
		return array(
            'atime' => $this->undefined,
        );

	}

}
stream_wrapper_register('sx', 'sw') or die('failed');

file_get_contents('sx://test');

unset($s);
$s[] = 1; //  Cannot use a scalar value as an array

print_r($s);

?
