#45802 [NEW]: Funny behaviour AddHandler

From:             cees at connectcase dot nl
Operating system: Linux
PHP version:      5.2CVS-2008-08-12 (CVS)
PHP Bug Type:     *Configuration Issues
Bug description:  Funny behaviour AddHandler

Description:
------------
Adding the following to your .htaccess file:

"AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php"

parses all php files correctly regarding "slash-involved" functions like
addslashes, mysql_real_escape_string etc.:

addslashes("O'Brien") results in "O\'Brien" (as it should be?)

Adding the 5 to the PHP handler to your .htaccess file :

"AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .htm .html .php"

results in 2 extra slashes.

addslashes("O'Brien") results in "O\\\'Brien".

I have searched for bugreports AND all over the Internet for an
explanation (or at least someone who experienced the same). No such luck.
