New Comment:
There's also a user agent with "check&get" in its name.
While this does not cause a parser error, PHP fills its
name into the array as "0" instead of its actual name. I
suspect this is also related to the special way ini
files are currently handled, and that it doesn't like
the "&" char in the user agent string, and that this
should be addressed at the same time as the "!" issue.

Oh, and the reason I cannot delimit certain values with double-quotes
is because browscap.dll does not strip out the quotes. If I entered
"Yahoo! Slurp" as a browser name then everyone using browscap.ini on
IIS would see "Yahoo! Slurp", including the double quotes as the
browser name.

Placing those values inside double quotes (") would fix it..
But as I guess that's not an option we have to fix the parser..for
php.ini, ! is special..
Maybe the best way to fix this is to have separate scanner/parser for
browscap.ini..

Description:
------------
When Apache starts with a new version of Gary Keith's
browscap.ini, PHP reports an error:
PHP: Error parsing /Library/WebServer/browscap.ini on
line 711
Line 711 reads:
browser=Yahoo! Slurp
Seems PHP's ini-file reading routine does not like the
bang in the browser name?
Reproduce code:
---------------
Download the 2/23/2004 or later browscap.ini (or download and unpack
browscap.zip) from www.garykeith.com.
Configure php.ini to point to this file.
Stop and restart Apache.
Expected result:
----------------
PHP should read in and accept the file without error.
Actual result:
--------------
PHP reports an error during Apache startup.
All browscap.ini entries before line 711 are loaded.
All entries after that are not.
Since browscap.ini is currently 18682 lines long, this
means most entries are not loaded.
