Michael,  Thanks for the update.  I can confirm that the bug is fixed  
and I no longer get the PHP error.

Regarding
http://lists.horde.org/archives/horde/Week-of-Mon-20121203/045767.html
for the record, I am using SLES 11-SP2 with PHP 5.3.8 as provided by  
the distribution.  Most larger organizations have contracted  
agreements with distribution provers, in my case SUSE for support ans  
security patches.  In order for the servers to remain in a supportable  
level, and from the point of view of security auditors, I cannot just  
remove the distribution version of PHP and replace it with the latest  
version.  SUSE will support the version provided on their distribution  
and will continue to provide the patches and security fixes through  
their channels.

I hope that you would consider the dilemma that I and others are in  
with regards to versions of PHP and other supporting software.  I do  
understand that you cannot be held responsible for the bugs in other  
software.

Thank you for correcting this bug.
