Expected behaviour.
$var = "str";
$packed = pack("a5", $var); // 5 bytes long NULL-padded string
var_dump(unpack("a*", $packed)); // the NULL-padding is removed to get
the original data.

Description:
------------
unpack( "a*", $string ) does not work as expected when last character
of $string is "\0"
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$string = "abc\0";
$arr = unpack( "a*buf", $string );
printf( "strlen = %d\n", strlen($arr['buf']) );
printf( "hex dump:\t" );
for( $i=0; $i<strlen($arr['buf']); $i++ )
printf( " %02x", ord($arr['buf']{$i}) );
printf( "\n" );
?>
Expected result:
----------------
strlen = 4
hex dump: 61 62 63 00
Actual result:
--------------
strlen = 3
hex dump: 61 62 63
