New Comment:
This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation
better.

This is a documentation problem.
Unlike the manual says, ob_implicit_flush() does neither end output
buffering, nor does it flush the current output buffer.
It just causes a flush() when something actually gets written to the
webserver.

Same thing:
php5.1-200602151530$ sapi/cgi/php -q
<?
ob_start();
ob_implicit_flush(true);
var_dump(ob_end_flush());
?>
bool(true)
Another test:
php5.1-200602151530$ sapi/cgi/php -q
<?
ob_start();
echo "hello\n";
ob_implicit_flush(true);
echo "bye\n";
ob_end_clean();
?>
(no output)
The ob_implicit_flush() function is not disabling output buffering or
sending the current output as the documentation says it should.

Description:
------------
The documentation for ob_implicit_flush says that
"Turning implicit flushing on will disable output buffering, the output
buffers current output will be sent as if ob_end_flush() had been
called."
This is not the case.
If this is indeed the correct behavior, please update the documentation
to reflect that and add an example such as the following:
ob_implicit_flush(true);
while (@ob_end_flush());
Reproduce code:
---------------
ob_start();
ob_implicit_flush(true);
var_dump(ob_end_flush());
Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)
Actual result:
--------------
bool(true)
