 New Comment:

I know this bug entry is old. But why is the BOM-problem set to "Wont fix"?
The last comment said the support will come with PHP 6. We all know PHP 6 is 
dead. 
PHP 5.5.0 has been released a week ago. But the problem persists.

Since it can not be guaranteed to have no BOMs in all files which gets included 
PHP should be able to recognize and ignore them. There is not only the problem 
of 
the "Headers already sent" but also NameSpacing doesn't work with BOM-infected 
files.

This will come with Unicode support in PHP 6.0

PHP 5.0.4 for Windows /still/ does not seem to have it (enable-zend-multibyte) 
enabled by default. For example session_start() is broken for UTF-8 encoded php 
files. I would strongly suggest to make enable-zend-multibyte a default for the 
windows release!

Of course I quoted the wrong like, zend-multibyte support is POSSIBLE (not 
DEFAULT) in the Windows version.

It is already available on Windows. In fact, I'm using it on a production 
server since june 2003, with no problems and with many satisfactions.

Any reason this is still not in by default?
Someone else is encountering bugs with it?

How about making this --enable-zend-multibyte default option?
Is it possible to port this support for windows too?
And for 4.3.x branch?
Should it be marked open again?
