May I ask why this change was made?
I was wondering if you could help us find an alternate way -- we couldn't find one --
so please share the knowledge with those who couldn't find it easily like you! ;-)
Nonetheless, I can't imagine why functionality like what we're interested in isn't
available in PHP. It seems like pretty basic stuff...
Thanks.

This is in fact a documentation issue.
PHP 4.0 changed the behavior of require(), and each separate file must now be parsable
by itself. It's a result of a fundemental change that took place between PHP 3 and 4,
and this behavior will remain as is...
You'd have to find an alternative way of doing what you want (which should be fairly
easy).
Doc team: The documentation for require() is no longer close to being accurate for
PHP 4.0 in general, and PHP 4.0.2&later in particular... It's basically just like
include() today, except it can't fail, and would bail out if it does.

index.php3:
<? require "header.php3"; ?>
sid is set
<? require "footer.php3"; ?>
header.php3:
<?
if (isset($sid))
{
?>
footer.php3:
<?
}
else
{
echo "sid not set";
}
?>

This is not a documentation issue. Read this again before you respond so quickly.

Please read this manual page carefully:
http://www.php.net/manual/function.require.php

Changed to Documentation problem as I couldn't
find the incompatibilities list (for PHP 3 vs. PHP 4)
from the manual.
