The BC was taken into consideration, but the manual never specified that this was the defined behavior. So we had made the decision at the time that this BC would be worth taking in 5.5 for bringing the implementations inline. The BC concerns seem to be fiarly limited in in immediate scope to Archive_Tar, which seems to be a trivial patch (see http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php? id=19746&edit=12&patch=archive_tar_php55.patch&revision=1355241213 also) and Igor Wiedler seems willing to apply it. Obviously there can more BC out there with people that rely on this behavior in their existing code, but I can not gauge this if I just base it on the number of open bugs in the bug tracker that have to do with pack and PHP 5.5. So in light of these events the plan is to ask that Archive_Tar be patched to resolve the make install issue and remain consistent with the Perl implementation, which also seems consistent with Ruby's implementation of pack. The spec itself seems a bit ambiguous as noted earlier in this thread, but I think PHP will benefit more from being consistent with the other implementations. Please let me know if there are other BC concerns that have not yet come up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-01-14 04:21:22] s...@php.net This is still an issue in PHP 5.5. and master: 1.

Things work as expected when building PHP <= 5.4. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
