PHP Bug Type:     Scripting Engine problem
Bug description:  invalid fgets() return value when invalid resource supplied

Description:
------------
See the example code. It should return FALSE according to the manual (and
to common good sense).

This is causing valid code like

while (($str = fgets($fd)) !== FALSE) {
  ...
}

to go into infinite loop, which is very bad.
I tried to look at the source code but it looks correct, as it  should
fall in file.c:1395, at the exit_failed label.


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

$fd = FALSE;

$retval = @fgets($fd);

var_dump($retval);


Expected result:
----------------
FALSE

Actual result:
--------------
NULL
