Bug description: escapeshellarg removes UTF-8 multi-byte characters
Description:
------------
In PHP 5.2.6 RC3 escapeshellarg removes UTF-8 multi-byte characters (well,
to be honest I have only tested german umlauts) from the input. RC1 has
worked fine. I suspect that the following entry in the NEWS file has
something to do with this: "Properly address incomplete multibyte chars
inside escapeshellcmd() (Ilia, Stefan Esser)"
Reproduce code:
---------------
php -r "var_dump(escapeshellarg('ä'));"
Expected result:
----------------
string(2) "'ä'"
Actual result:
--------------
string(2) "''"
