Bug description:  print_r sends output when $return set to true  if memory 
limit is reached

Description:
------------
This relates to Bug #47020 which I believe has incorrectly set to 
bogus.

I have been using print_r() while processing $errcontext in an error 
handling function, ie one registered with set_error_handler()

It seems that when print_r() hits the memory limit it exposes my 
entire error context to the user.

print_r having a failure mode where it exposes potentially private 
data to the user is a security issue.

If it can't be fixed easily then it should be documented.
