And none of the purported statements he tried line up with the purported

comprehension.

Again, your comprehension is lacking. It was set as not a PHP bug.
However, once again, there is no indication this is the same problem as
a reported bug over six years old.

No! You, wrong? Can't be!

Not having any idea how your system is set up, I would say your test is
worthless.

See above.
