TwitterAvailable always returns false when using PHP 5.2.0 with json 1.2.1 #50

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. call twitter->twitterAvailable() (json mode)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
expected: true
actual: false

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
phpTwitter v1.1 OS:Linux 

Please provide any additional information below.
http://www.twitter.com/help/test.json currently contains the literal string
"ok". This is not actually a valid json string (it's not an object or an
array) so the json_decode function returns null (before PHP 5.2.1). The
TwitterAvailable method then returns false because Null does not equal
"ok". My development environment works because I have PHP 5.2.8. The shared
server that hosts the live site uses 5.2.0 which is the stated requirement
for phpTwitter
