[#4289] - PHP output_buffering reported incorrectly on Joomla 2.5.24, 3.3.3

- # 4289
Steps to reproduce the issue
Turn off output_buffering in PHP by using a Plesk override, or editing the local php.ini (Plesk rewrites the php.ini with the override), by adding a line:
output_buffering = 'Off'
Joomla reports Output Buffering is On, so investigate.
Create a phpinfo() in the same folder as your Joomla installation.
In the Joomla administration backend, go to System Information / PHP Settings.
Joomla says: Setting: Output Buffering Value: On
Yet phpinfo() reports
output_buffering Local Value: Off Master Value: Off
Expected result
PHP output_buffering should be reported as Off
Actual result
PHP output_buffering is reported as On
System information (as much as possible)
Environement: CentOS 6.4, Apache 2.2.15, PHP 5.4.27
And yes, I restarted Apache, although changing the value in Plesk applies the change immediately without a restart anyway.
This behavior is observed on both Joomla 2.5 and 3.
Additional comments
I ran across this using the rokbooster plugin, that compressed CSS etc. It likes output_buffering to be Off. I turned it off, yet Joomla continues to think it is On.

Argh I thought it was stripping out the quotes, but no. Removing the quotes fixes the problem, thanks!

Cool
Try using
output_buffering = offinstead ofoutput_buffering = 'off'(notice the missing ' ' around theoff). The parameter either accepts an integer or a boolean. However you give a string, which is basically invalid.Can you verify that?
