bug in ip2c on 64bit machines

[Watermark]

hi,

the readInt()-funtion in ip2c.php does not work propertly on 64bit machines because the PHP-bug in the unpack-funtion on 64bit machines.

you have to change the ip2c.php file:

function readInt()
{
   $a=unpack('N', fread($this->m_file, 4));
   $b = sprintf("%b", $a[1]);
   if(strlen($b) == 64){
      $new = substr($b, 33);
      $a[1] = bindec($new);
   }
   return $a[1];
}

the idea come from: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.unpack.php

Best wishes from Germany.

Thanks for the workaround, unfortunatelly its a pretty ugly hack that will cost in efficiency for everyone (not just 5.2.1 64bit users) so I will not use it. This bug effects only php 5.2.1 on 64bit systems, and I am pretty certain Zend will fix this in the next release, so I decided not to hack my way around this bug.

closing as duplicate of #264.
