PHP 5.0.4 for Windows /still/ does not seem to have it
(enable-zend-multibyte) enabled by default. For example session_start()
is broken for UTF-8 encoded php files. I would strongly suggest to make
enable-zend-multibyte a default for the windows release!

Of course I quoted the wrong like, zend-multibyte support is POSSIBLE
(not DEFAULT) in the Windows version.

It is already available on Windows. In fact, I'm using it on a
production server since june 2003, with no problems and with many
satisfactions.
Any reason this is still not in by default?
Someone else is encountering bugs with it?

How about making this --enable-zend-multibyte default option?
Is it possible to port this support for windows too?
And for 4.3.x branch?
Should it be marked open again?

Adding '--enable-zend-multibyte' to latest PHP5 port for FreeBSD for
sure solves the problem:
All files contain:
<?
header("Content-Language: it");
echo "àèéìòù\n";
?>
cyberx [~] $ php /usr/tmp/utf8-bom.php
à èéìòù
cyberx [~] $ php /usr/tmp/utf8Y-bom.php
àèéìòù
cyberx [~] $ php /usr/tmp/utf16-bom.php
àèéìòù
cyberx [~] $ php /usr/tmp/utf16BE-bom.php
àèéìòù
cyberx [~] $ php /usr/tmp/utf16LE-bom.php
àèéìòù
Except for "UTF8 without BOM" that is, of course, not distinguishable
from ISO8859-15 (default here), all theother formats are correctly
interpreted and outputted.
(notice that the 'header' instruction prior of the 'echo' one would
stutter with a non-BOM-aware PHP compile).
I wonder if and when this great multibyte support would be available by
default in Win32 compiles, I would really use it for work and am not
willing to but VisualC just to compile that ;-)
(though I'm trying compiling it with cygwin's gcc using '-mno-cygwin'
option, we'll see...)

Thought about it... Now I think it's better when the BOM isn't part of
the output because that would cause trouble if you want to output
images or PDF or something like that...
