if you remove enctype="multipart/form-data" it works fine

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Dear Sir,
I upgraded from apache 1.13.12 to 1.13.14-3 (package downloaded from updates.redhat.com).
PHPNuke suddenly did not work properly
because two charcters (\l\f) are added at the beginning of each post variables. 
this is the PHP code: <form enctype=\"multipart/form-data\" action=\"admin.php\" method=\"post\">"
if I remove: enctype="multipart/form-data" everything is fine

I can't give you an URL because it is meaningless unless you know phpNuke and I also had to make the code work.

I found the problem with 2 machine, both running RH7, only after I upgraded apache and php. with the previous version everything was fine.

Best Regards
Matteo

Thanks for the report.  This is a mass bug update; since this release
of Red Hat Linux is no longer supported, please either:

a) try and reproduce the bug with a supported version of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux or Fedora Core, and re-open this bug as appropriate
after changing the Product field, or,

b) if relevant, try and reproduce this bug using the current version
of the upstream package, and report the bug upstream.
