are you sure they get truncated?
please echo strlen($HTTP_POST_VARS["var"]) *before* the
other output and please don't use NS 4.x it is known to
truncate an unknown number of bytes after a \0 string,
NS6,IE will work...

Ok, I might have been to brief.
I have an application posting the string "var=hello%00world" to a script:
<?php
print $HTTP_POST_VARS["var"];
?>
And the "var" gets trucated at the NULL character.
(I've tried it with and without magic_quotes_gpc)

When posting a string like this:
var=hello%00world

The $HTTP_POST_VARS["var"] only contains "hello".

I use php.ini-dist
'--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache/conf' '--with-mysql' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-wddx'
