This is not really a bug, this is the behavior of a 32 bit system in
any language. Run "perl -e 'print 11>>34'" or write a C program which
does the same.
Since this behavior is common and exists in other languages, the best
we could do is document it.

Ahh.. It still should produce zero though.

Actually - the echo(11>>34) issue, is somewhat expected behavior. What
happens, is that it returns 11>>2 (34 - 32) - BUT only on a 32-bit
system.
I just checked at an AIX 64-bit system, and there echo(11>>34) gives 0
And anything above 64-bit is than equal to $int>>($shift % 64).
Maybe it should be added to the bitwise operators documentation.
<?php
print("32 bits test\n");
$int=11;
for ($shift=31;$shift<35;$shift++)
{
print("$shift: ");
$check=$int>>$shift;
print($check);
print("\n\n");
}
print("64 bits test\n");
for($shift=63;$shift<67;$shift++)
{
print("$shift: ");
$check=$int>>$shift;
print($check);
print("\n");
}
?>
On a 64-bit system produces:
$ php -f test.php
32 bits test
31: 0
32: 0
33: 0
34: 0
64 bits test
63: 0
64: 11
65: 5
66: 2
On a 32-bit system produces:
32 bits test
31: 0
32: 11
33: 5
34: 2
64 bits test
63: 0
64: 11
65: 5
66: 2

Just a reminder of the original issue:
echo (11>>34) produces "2"
This is not a documentation problem, unless you want to write that
shifting greater than 32 has incorrect results.

are you sure? there is already a bunch of reports on "floating-point
bugs" in PHP. That's why I didn't reopen it.
