PHP Bug Type: SimpleXML related
Bug description: Serializing SimpleXML removes the root node; asXML on
unserailized breaks
Description:
------------
If you serialize a SimpleXMLElement object, the root-level node is lost,
causing the unserialize() event to issue a warning-level error (and
creating an empty SimpleXMLElement object) and cause most other
SimpleXMLElement methods to fail with a warning-level error.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('<test><foo>1</foo><bar>2</bar></test>');
$serialized = serialize($xml);
$unserialized = unserialize($serialized);
$unserialized->addChild('testing', 'worked');
echo $unserialized->asXML();
Expected result:
----------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<test><foo>1</foo><bar>2</bar><testing>worked</testing></test>
Actual result:
--------------
