i dont see any mention of what happens when eg "open" calls "die", like mentioned in docs for "register_shutdown_function":
"If you call exit() within one registered shutdown function, processing will stop completely and no other registered shutdown functions will be called."
http://php.net/manual/en/function.register-shutdown-function.php
my result: same behavior--"read" will not get called if "open" calls "die"/"exit".
