New Comment:
What about "initial segment" do you find unclear? Why would you think
the use of "segment" in any way contradicts the use of "initial"? I
cannot think of any way of rewording this that would be appreciably
clearer.

I did expect it to be case-sensitive, but by your description that
means it will only search from the start of the string.
A matching substring does not count.
>From the manual:
"strspn -- Find length of initial segment matching mask"
The use of 'segment' made me think otherwise.
Perhaps a re-wording is needed...

It works exactly the same as the libc counterpart,
that's the expected way. Not bug.

No, because strspn is case-sensitive. In the first instance, there is
no initial string that contains characters from your second parameter
(the string begins with 'r', which doesn't match any of the characters
in 'R'). In the second case, the first character of 'Rrc' contains
characters from 'R', and therefore the function returns 1.

Description:
------------
echo strspn('rRc', 'R'); // returns 0
echo strspn('Rrc', 'R'); // returns 1
Shouldn't both of these return 1?
Reproduce code:
---------------
echo strspn('rRc', 'R');
Expected result:
----------------
1
