Description:
------------
In HEAD, the original input is sent to the output when the output
buffer callback returns NULL. The docs for ob_start() only state this
should happen when it returns FALSE - not NULL:
"If output_callback returns FALSE original input is sent to the
browser."
On PHP 5_2 and 5_3, the empty string is sent to the output when the
output buffer callback returns NULL.
If the 5_2 & 5_3 behaviour is correct, here is a patch for HEAD :
Index: output.c

If HEAD's current behaviour is as intended, the docs should be updated
to describe the new behaviour in PHP6.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
function return_null($string) {
return null;
}
ob_start('return_null');
echo "You shouldn't see this.\n";
ob_end_flush();
echo 'done';
?>
Expected result:
----------------
done
Actual result:
--------------
You shouldn't see this.
done
