Bug description: Fatal errors fails exit with status=0
According to the manual, require() differs from include() in that failure
to open a file is FATAL in require().
Yet, using sapi/cgi/php or sapi/cli/php, fatal errors from require() exit
with status=0 instead of non-zero, as one would expect from a 'fatal'
error.
I do not know if this problem is true for ALL fatal errors or not.
Calling exit(1) works correctly however, which provides an awkward, but
useful, workaround to this problem:
$success=require("non_existent.php");
if (!$success) exit(1);
Here is my test file: /htdocs/common/test/junk/test.php
<?php
$script="non_existent_file";
$success=require_once($script);
//the following fixes the problem:
//if (!$success) exit(1);
?>
