It has nothing do with "echo showing the signed version."
If that were the case, it would output the same (negative)
number when you echo $before as well.
It's PHP /using/ the signed version. For example:
$test[$before] = 'It works!';
if (isset($test[$after])) {
echo "It works!\n";
} else {
echo "It doesn't work!\n";
}
$before and $after are /not/ the same value to PHP. Nothing
to do with echo.

Yes, but echo will show the signed representatation. This is *not* a
bug, use printf("%u") to show the unsigned version.

While PHP may only support signed integers, the manual for
pack() clearly states, regarding the 'N' format:
"unsigned long (always 32 bit, big endian byte order)"
But it returns a signed int when using this format,
contrary to the documentation.
There's obviously some sort of internal PHP state regarding
the signedness of a particular value, since it's capable of
correctly representing the unsigned value. It just seems
that unpack() is doing something wrong here.

try printf("%u") though to print it - that would work...

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
PHP only supports signed integers.
