Bug description:  strtok broken again

It seems that strtok function is broken again.

The following script returns:

<?
        $first_token=strtok("/something","/");
        $second_token=strtok("/");
        var_dump($first_token,$second_token);
?>

Should output as always (at least until PHP 4.0.6 it does):

string(0) ""
string(9) "something"

But it outputs:

string(9) "something"
bool(false)

It seems that jmoore broken in when he tried to fix this bug:

http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=13866

I think that no developer should be allowed to fix bugs before:

1) submit a test case to leave in the tests directory
2) Verify that his fixes do not make his and others tests fail.

Until this procedure becomes mandatory, we'll keep seeing a history of
illness in functions like strtok that seems to never end.

This is what regressive tests are for. Zak, please help here! :-)
