Function ip2long() fixed long time ago, but now I see incorrect note in
documentation (at bottom of the chapter):

"Note:  ip2long() will return -1 (PHP 4) or FALSE (PHP 5) for the IP
255.255.255.255"

This is incorrect. ip2long returns -1 in both PHP4 and PHP5 for IP
255.255.255.255. Value "-1" is _correct_ value for 255.255.255.255, so
that note must be deleted from documentation. Note about PHP4 is exist
near the top of chapter.

Sorry, but problem not fixed - I try php5-win32-latest.zip and
php5.0-win32-200408190830.zip. Both snapshots return FALSE on address
255.255.255.255.

Since version 5.0 ip2long returns FALSE on invalid address. It is
documented, and it is correct.

But ip2long returns FALSE on 255.255.255.255 - it is _not_ correct,
because 255.255.255.255 is _valid_ address.

Documentation says that ip2long returns -1 on 255.255.255.255 - it is
_correct_, because unsigned 0xffffffff is signed -1.

Unfortunatelly, I cannot fix this error by myself...
