Bug description:ob_start() fails when passed default parameters

Description:
------------
Calling ob_start() with explicit parameters that match the defaults (using
null to 
get past the first one, as documented), the various functions to end output

buffering generate notices, which are also added to the buffered content.
For 
example, ob_get_clean() returns the following:

        ob_get_clean(): failed to discard buffer of default output handler [...]
        ob_get_clean(): failed to delete buffer of default output handler (0) 
in 
[...]

It looks like output is spit out just as though buffering were not enabled,
*and* 
the buffer gets saved - albeit with the buffering-related notices mixed
in.

Testing at <http://sandbox.onlinephpfunctions.com>, it appears the bug was

introduced in 5.4 (it works in 5.3.23) and continues through the latest
version of 
5.5.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

ob_start(null, 0, true);
echo 'hello world';
$foo = ob_get_clean();

var_dump($foo)

?>

Expected result:
----------------
string(11) "hello world"


Actual result:
--------------
PHP Notice:  ob_get_clean(): failed to discard buffer of default output
handler 
(0) in [...] on line 5
PHP Notice:  ob_get_clean(): failed to delete buffer of default output
handler (0) 
in [...] on line 5
hello world
Notice: ob_get_clean(): failed to discard buffer of default output handler
(0) in 
[...] on line 5

Notice: ob_get_clean(): failed to delete buffer of default output handler
(0) in 
[...] on line 5
string(11) "hello world"
