In case it wasn't clear, I forgot to mention what seems to be
happening.

In interactive mode, upon reaching the "if (false)" containing a
try/catch block, the interactive session tries to include the file
again. This never stops and in continually includes the file over and
over. If you change the function to print out $i, you will see this
clearly.

If the condition is "true", it exhibits the correct behavior. False, or
a condition that evaluates to false, introduces the bug.

Description:
------------
when running a bit of code from the command line, it works. Running the
same code interactively causes it to hang.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
// example1.php
if (false) {
  try {} catch (Exception $e) {}
}
?>

<?php
// example2.php
function stop_the_madness () {
  static $i;
  if (++$i > 1) exit("WTF?!\n");
}

stop_the_madness();

if (false) {
  try {} catch (Exception $e) {}
}

exit("A-OK\n");
?>

Expected result:
----------------
In the first snippet, nothing should happen. But when that is in a
file, and require_once'ed from the interactive shell, it hangs.

In the second example, when ran from CLI, it says A-OK. But when ran
interactively, it says "WTF?!"
