Description:
------------
When calling var_export() on a recursive array, with the 'return'
parameter set to true, a partial var_exported string is echoed and then
a fatal error is raised.
A more correct handling should be to just raise the php fatal error, not
output the partial string. (sensitive data might be accidentally shown,
for example)
Test script:
---------------
$recursive = array();
$recursive[] = &$recursive;
$test = var_export($recursive, true);
Expected result:
----------------
Fatal error: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in test.php
on line x
Actual result:
--------------
array ( 0 => array ( 0 => array ( 0 => array ( 0 => array (
Fatal error: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in test.php
on line x
