Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
As says the documentation:
"The closing delimiter (possibly followed by a semicolon) must also be followed
by a newline."
Just put a newline after the heredoc/nowdoc closing delimiter.

Description:
------------
Scripts explicitly started with <?php, but leaved without an ending ?> having
nowdoc or heredoc definitions inside will result in an syntax error.
Full Error description:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end, expecting T_VARIABLE or
T_END_HEREDOC or T_DOLLAR_OPEN_CURLY_BRACES or T_CURLY_OPEN in <FILE> on line
<NUMBER>
tested environment:
Zend Server Community Edition
PHP Version 5.3.8-ZS5.5.0
Workarround Solution:
Simply close the <?php on scripts having nowdoc or heredoc definitions.
In bigger projects the most developer leaved any scripts arround without an
closing php-tag as usual to prevent printing out blank spaces / lines to the
client.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
echo <<<'EOT'
<b>test</b>
EOT;
Expected result:
----------------
<b>test</b>
Actual result:
--------------
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end, expecting T_VARIABLE or
T_END_HEREDOC
or T_DOLLAR_OPEN_CURLY_BRACES or T_CURLY_OPEN in C:\Program Files
(x86)\Zend\Apache2\htdocs\bam.php on line 4
