IMHO
(1) should only be documented what is intended. ZEND should say about
comma in expr2 before it makes it into the manual. Such deviation from
C should be intentional if at all.
(2) in C++, by 5.2 of its definition, only assigments can be
comma-sequenced. Simple boolean expressions are not yet assignments.
The value of a sequenced expression is the value of the last assigment,
not an OR of them.
(3) it would be more logical to give comma in expr-2 the meaning of
AND: continue while (data available AND buffer available). But better
nothing.

You can use a comma in expr2 too, it's equivalent to || but much lower
in precedence.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation
better.
thanks for the patch
