I mentioned 47020 in the first sentence of my initial report so 
referring me to it is hardly enlightening or productive and pretty 
much indicates you didn't bother to read the report at all (we are 
all no doubt time poor, so I understand the temptation!).

If this is bogus then please explain why.

Personally I cannot see how a failure mode that potentially exposes 
private data to the user can not be a genuine issue.

Please, see bug #47020.

Thanks.

Martin, where exactly is this fix?

I looked through the NEWS file and saw no entries.

This has been fixed in CVS.

Description:
------------
This relates to Bug #47020 which I believe has incorrectly set to 
bogus.

I have been using print_r() while processing $errcontext in an error 
handling function, ie one registered with set_error_handler()

It seems that when print_r() hits the memory limit it exposes my 
entire error context to the user.

print_r having a failure mode where it exposes potentially private 
data to the user is a security issue.

If it can't be fixed easily then it should be documented.
