New Comment:
Experiencing this issue on Win 32 with PHP 5.3.2.
stream_set_blocking(STDIN, 0)
('correctly') returns false and does not allow non-blocking. Also
experiencing
issues using stream_select() on STDIN. STDIN always comes back as ready
for
reading, but reading from it blocks.

Hope this helps someone else, but the workaround I had to do was to
fread(stdin) from another script, output to a temp file, then use output
in my other script.
Yeah its ugly, but at least I have an interactive shell (or should that
be shells :)
Dear PHP developers. I love php. Its the glue that holds everything I do
together.... Please take this in the best way possible, WTF? This bug
should not be there... And 4 years after the fact?! Please help me love
PHP even more, and fix this bug.

Confirmed on Nov 14th, 2009 with PHP 5.2.11 on WinXp
Yet no useful fix. Linux (Ubuntu 9.10 is just fine)

I can confirm this bug affects PHP 5.3.0. today at July 22 2009 almost 4
years from its submittion and still no fix.
This is very important since you can't create a really interactive CLI
application with this issue, and stops developers from choosing PHP to
theirs CLI/CMD/Console application (Although this could affect PHP-GTK
users and developers)
Hope this fix soon
Regards

I'm having the same trouble.
With php-5.3.0-beta1 on Linux it works fine, both on STDIN and on
fopen('/dev/ttyS0'). stream_set_blocking() returns true,
stream_get_meta_data() confirms, and the stream behaves as if
non-blocking.
But with php-5.2.9 on Windows 2000 it doesn't work for either STDIN or
the serial port (COM1 instead of /dev/ttyS0). stream_set_blocking()
returns false, stream_get_meta_data() shows blocking, and the streams do
in fact block. I also tried stream_set_timeout() with a tiny value, to
simulate the effect, but that also returns false and doesn't work.
