• 0.9.2 (alpha, 2007-01-06)
  Release notes

  License: PHP License

  another major 32-bit/64-bit issue in PHP 5.1 where crc32() returns different values
  was causing some phars to fail.

  This is *not* fixed in PHP 5.2, and won't be. This only affects CRCs. The workaround
  found is to sprintf("%u", crc32($data))

• 0.9.1 (alpha, 2007-01-05)
  Release notes

  License: PHP License

  fix API version so that Phar extension can also open PHP_Archive-generated archives

  major 32-bit/64-bit issue in PHP 5.1 where unpack() returns different values
  was causing some phars to fail. For instance:

  $a = pack("V", 3068571189);
  var_dump(unpack("Va", $a));

  reports
  int(3068571189) on 32 bit and
  int(-1226396107) on 64 bit

  in PHP 5.1. This is fixed in PHP 5.2. This only affects CRCs. The workaround
  found is to sprintf("%u", $crc)
