Subject: Unserialize bug in PHP 4.3.2RC4?
From: programmazione@iast.it (Iacopo Spalletti)

I'm testing PHP 4.3.2RC4 and i think i found a bug in unserialize function
If you run this script:
<?php
error_reporting (E_ALL);
$a      = array(4);
$str    = serialize($a);
print('Serialized array: '.$str."\n");
$b      = unserialize($str);
print('Unserialized array: ');
var_dump($b);
print("\n");
$str    = serialize(array(4.5));
print('Serialized array: '.$str."\n");
$b      = unserialize($str);
print('Unserialized array: ')   ;
var_dump($b);
print("\n");
?>
You should expect the second variable to contain an array with a single 
floating value.
On my systems (Linux SuSE x86) i got this notice:
Notice: unserialize(): Error at offset 15 of 16 bytes in script-name.php on 
line 12
Result for unserialize() is "false"
Needless to say that on PHP 4.3.0 all run fine
Serializing/deserializing float var it's ok
