Subject: run-tests.php - GZIP_POST and DEFLATE_POST question
From: aparachic@gmail.com (zoe slattery)

Hi

When we implemented these sections in the parallel version of 
run-tests.php we seem to have decided to change the way that they work.

https://wiki.php.net/qa/runtests/decisions/notimplemented

I can't find any discussion of this either on internals or on QA.

In the current version of run-tests.php there is a --GZIP_POST-- section 
which just has a "1" in it which tells run-tests.php to gzip the 
contents of a --POST-- section. See here: 
http://qa.php.net/phpt_details.php#gzip_post_section

I'm not sure why it was done this way - it seems to me to make more 
sense to just have a single --GZIP_POST-- section. Maybe I'm missing 
something?

Anyway - it  affects two tests (afaict) and I was wondering if there 
would be any objection to my making a small change to the way these two 
sections are implemented in run-tests.php? And change the tests of course.
