Excerpt from internals:
Nikita Popov Fri, Sep 9, 2011 at 09:15
[...]
The problem with the patch is, that there are some tokens after
T_HALT_COMPILER that are of interest, namely the '(' ')' ';'. After
the patch it is impossible to get those tokens, without either
relexing the code after T_HALT_COMPILER (that way you get the binary
data problem back, just with much more complex code) or writing a
regular expression to match it (which is really hard, as there may be
any token dropped by the PHP parser in there, i.e. whitespace,
comments, PHP tags).
[...]
I would like this patch to be reverted on the 5.4 and trunk branches.
I assume it's too late to revert it on 5.3, as it has been there for
some time already. It is just counterproductive. (Alternatively one
could fix token_get_all to return the (); tokens after
__halt_compiler, too, but that would be hard, probably.)

I think that it wouldn't be too hard.
>From a quick glance on the code, we should introduce a new local
variable, set that to true where we break now (
http://svn.php.net/viewvc/php/php-src/trunk/ext/tokenizer/tokenizer.c?view=markup#l155
) and don't break there but for the next ';'. another maybe less
confusing solution would be to explicitly add '(', ')' and ';' to the
result in the T_HALT_COMPILER condition before breking out of the
loop.
I will create a patch for this afternoon.
or could there be other important tokens after the __halt_compiler()
which should be present in the token_get_all() result?

You can also just count the number of semantic token after T_HALT_COMPILER (ie
excluding whitespace and comments) and once you hit 3, halt.

If you mean verifying that '(', ')' and (';' or T_CLOSE_TAG) are effectively
following T_HALT_COMPILER, I think that's part of the syntax analyser's job,
not tokenizer's.
If you're ok with this argument, then just couting 3 tokens is really the most
basic "syntax analysis" we have to do to fix the pb, don't you think?

Maybe the binary data itself, as a big T_INLINE_HTML for example ?
Also, if token_get_all you be made binary safe, that would be very cool ! (no
more eating of \x00-\x1F inside regular code) :)

In favor of both proposals!
Returning the next 3 tokens should be quite easy [1].
Returning the rest as an T_INLINE_HTML makes sense too, as extracting
the data is probably what you want. Though I have no idea how to
implement that ^^

I just set up an PHP environment and wrote a proper patch (including
test changes) to make it collect the next three tokens. It's a git
patch and I'm not sure whether it's compatible with SVN patches. I
would love it if this would go into 5.4 before beta. I didn't know how
one could fetch the rest into T_INLINE_HTML, so I'm hoping on help
here from someone who actually knowns C there :)

Latest 5.3.6 has been released with the patch...
So now token_get_all() stops on T_HALT_COMPILER for ever :)
