Description:
------------
Fail to use PEAR\SOAP\example\client.php as test script
(any soap call fails, except request for WSDL)

Note:

Switching off notice errors returns a 'Page cannot be displayed' (MS IE browser error)

Test script:
---------------
I used PEAR\SOAP\example\client.php of SOAP 0.9.1

Expected result:
----------------
Under PHP 5.0.4 it returns:

this is a test string
this is a test string
Error: SOAP request contained mismatching parameters of name dividend had type [string], which did not match signature's type: [int], matched? -10

I'm seeing a similar problem with SOAP and PHP 5.1.1: we're migrating a server from PHP 4.x and Apache 1.3 to a shiny new Apache 2.0 and PHP 5.1.1 machine, and some SOAP requests fail. It seems to be somewhat data- and size-dependent: we can trade small packets such as session keys and message IDs, but people can't upload things like their logo graphic.

We're seeing a segfault in the main Apache log for the failing requests, sometime after the service method is called on the SOAP server. So it all compiles fine, but something is broken somewhere. FWIW, this is happening both for current release (0.9.1) and whatever older version we had on our previous server, when that's placed under the PHP 5.1.1 environment.
