I think someone should take a look at this bug. It has been around for
too long. It has been reported before at:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=22526. If it isn't a bug it should be
mentioned on the manual page.
Thanks

Description:
------------
I'm referring to the "bug" descriped here :
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=10675&edit=1 . I would recommend that
you add a warning on the "Program Execution Functions" documentation
page which basically advises the programmer to close any open session
before calling exec() or other related functions as otherwise the PHP
script may hang!
Reproduce code:
---------------
session_start();
exec('ls');
// Save this, open the page in a browser and reload repeatedly. After
several successful reloads, the page will just hang
Expected result:
----------------
nothing, the correct code seems to be:
session_start();
/*
..... code ...
*/
session_write_close();
exec('ls');
@session_start();
// There's no locking in this code
