Actually that should work and does work. I'm in the happy position of 
being able to recreate (but without the fault):

%php test.php
test
%php --version
PHP 5.3.6 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: Jul 27 2011 20:41:21)
Copyright (c) 1997-2011 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2011 Zend Technologies
%uname -v
FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE #0: Thu Feb 17 02:41:51 UTC 2011 
root@mason.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
%cat test.php
<?php
echo "test"
?>

%php test.php
test
%

So what you're should doing should work. I should try recompiling and 
reinstalling PHP as a first step, unless you have reasons you don't want 
to do that. Email me directly if you want to cross-check config files 
and so on on what may be a very similar environment.
