Just wanted to check that I'm reading this right before committing
to the docs: does print() return 1, always? The following seems to
indicate so:

case ZEND_PRINT:
	zend_print_variable(get_zval_ptr(&EX(opline)->op1, EX(Ts), 
                            &EG(free_op1), BP_VAR_R));
	EX(Ts)[EX(opline)->result.u.var].tmp_var.value.lval = 1;
	EX(Ts)[EX(opline)->result.u.var].tmp_var.type = IS_LONG;
	FREE_OP(EX(Ts), &EX(opline)->op1, EG(free_op1));
	NEXT_OPCODE();


Thanks,

Torben

Hmm, it could actually be changed to return bool(true). Maybe we kept it 
like this for PHP 3 compatibility but we can change it for PHP 5 IMO 
because I doubt ppl use the return value as a number.
