New Comment:
Failed to add; this will also work:
print $_SERVER[(binary)'SCRIPT_NAME'];
That's pretty nasty to have to do consistently though. You could work
around it by defining constants for all keys:
define(SCRIPT_NAME, (binary)'SCRIPT_NAME');
print $_SERVER[SCRIPT_NAME];
But that's also ugly. It'd be more convenient if the keys were in
Unicode by default.

Description:
------------
In the current snapshot of PHP6, the values stored in the "internal"
$_SERVER and $_ENV super-globals cannot be accessed using literal string
keys like $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'].
This is because the array keys in these super-globals are of type
"string", while literals in the script implicitly are of type
"unicode".
This problem does not occur in $_GET, $_POST and $_REQUEST, because the
request parameter names are implicitly in unicode too.
Reproduce code:
---------------
// This will fail and print a notice:
print $_ENV['SHELL'] . "\n";
// This works:
foreach($_ENV as $key => $value)
if ($key == 'SHELL')
print $_ENV[$key] . "\n";
// This will work:
foreach ($_ENV as $key => $value)
$_ENV["$key"] = $value;
print $_ENV['SHELL'] . "\n";
Expected result:
----------------
/bin/bash
/bin/bash
/bin/bash
Actual result:
--------------
Notice: Undefined index: SHELL in - on line 2
/bin/bash
/bin/bash
