From:             php at f0e dot net
Operating system: FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p10
PHP version:      4.3.4
PHP Bug Type:     Variables related
Bug description:  Globals not being defined with 'register_globals On' at random

Description:
------------
Running Apache/2.0.48 and PHP 4.3.4

PHP configuration:

'./configure' '--with-mysql' '--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs'
'--with-openssl' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--with-zlib' '--with-gd'
'--with-freetype-dir' '--with-jpeg-dir' '--enable-gd-native-ttf'
'--enable-mime-magic' '--disable-cgi' '--with-mhash'

Changes to the php.ini-dist: 'register_globals = On', 'display_errors =
Off', 'log_errors = On'

when I attempt to access (normally) global variables (like $REMOTE_ADDR --
I know I should be using $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] but I cannot force my
clients to update all their scripts), maybe 1/10th of the time
$REMOTE_ADDR is undefined. $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] is defined all the time
however.

I tried moving back to 4.3.3 which still experiences the same problem.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
  print "REMOTE_ADDR: '$_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]'<br>\n";
  print "REMOTE_ADDR: '$REMOTE_ADDR'";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
REMOTE_ADDR: '127.0.0.1'<br>
REMOTE_ADDR: '127.0.0.1'

Actual result:
--------------
REMOTE_ADDR: '127.0.0.1'<br>
REMOTE_ADDR: ''
