Still not a bug :)
gets converted not to a space (ascii 32) but to a non breaking
space, which matches to ascii 160. And that character is not always a
non breaking space in every character set so trim() should not trim it
by default.

I apologize, my example was too simple and did not reproduce the
problem:
$foo = " ";
$foo = html_entity_decode( $foo, ENT_QUOTES );
$foo = trim( $foo );
echo "x{$foo}x";
output is: 'x x'

Works fine here:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat bug31301.php
<?php
$foo = " ";
$foo = trim( $foo );
echo "x{$foo}x";
?>
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ php-4.3dev bug31301.php

Description:
------------
When passed a string variable with a single space as its contents,
trim() returns a variable with a single space as its contents.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$foo = " ";
$foo = trim( $foo );
echo "x{$foo}x";
--
output is: 'x x'
Expected result:
----------------
trim() should return a empty string (or false).
