Bug description:  __get() behaves unpredictably

Description:
------------
I have a class (in the reproduce code "Test") which is basically a
container for some attributes. Some of the attributes are the results of
expressions which I only want to evaluate when the attribute is accessed
for the first time. The __get() function seems perfect for this.

One attribute is "repository" - its value should be the result of an
expression, concatenated with a slash character and another attribute
("name"), if "name" is not null.

When "name" is not null, the first time "repository" is accessed, __get()
returns the result of the expression, without anything concatenated. The
second time "repository" is accessed, __get() returns just a slash
character and "name", without the result of the expression.

Reproduce code:
---------------
http://cgi.sfu.ca/~jdbates/tmp/php/200811130/test.phps

Expected result:
----------------
ket% php test.php                                                  
string(9) "some expr/name"
string(4) "some expr/name"
ket% 


Actual result:
--------------
ket% php test.php                                                  
string(9) "some expr"
string(4) "/name"
ket%
