The way you are using this should not have any problems.
I have not been able to reproduce this. What is your compile string?

Also, can you try running the standalone as follows? :
/path/to/php /path/to/test-file.php

By the way, a temporary work around for your cron job, until we solve your problem would be

grep -v '#!' /path/to/my/script.phx | /path/to/php

I'm not running them through STDIN.
I'm running them right from the command line:

     ./script.phx

...or from cron:

     15 1,13 * * * /path/to/my/script.phx

Or am I misunderstanding you?

(the script files start with "#!/path/to/php -q")

You must be running them through stdin ex "php < file".
If so, this is not a bug

If you are using shebang, you should just execute the script ./script. If you have to run php manualy then you will need to pass files in as args, not as stdin

ex. php file1.php

Just to follow up ...

I get the hash-bang line output even when running the script from the shell (i.e. not from cron).

Help!

I run several PHP scripts from cron. Since updating to PHP 4.0.3pl1, these scripts (which did not, and do not, output anything to STDOUT) have started to output the "hash-bang" line.

A sample email I receive:

#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
--8<----------------------------

I've triple checked for extraneous whitespace in the scripts, and found none. Even if there were, that shouldn't be the problem.

Ideas?
