HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA Strangeness

Hello,

  I am having a strange problem that seems to be based on a setting in 
php.ini: always_populate_raw_post_data=On vs Off

  If this value is not set to On (which I have no control over at a shared 
hosting server) the following code will produce a valid WSDL, but when the 
service is called it faults with 'xml was empty, didn't parse'.

Works if always_populate_raw_post_data=On:
  $server->service($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA);

Generates correct WSDL for service.php?wsdl:
  $server->service($_POST);  // generates above fault when called though

Only way it works with =Off:
  $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA = @$HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA ? $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA : $_POST;
  $server->service($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA);

  I can't see where the service($data) would care where the $data came 
from in nusoap.php (nor anywhere else $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is referenced).

This is with latest CVS nusoap.php v 1.72,
  John
