Hi,
I am trying to get attention placed on a crippling bug in PHP. You can view it at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=25394
It has been labeled bogus twice as the PHP maintainers cannot reproduce the bug. This is odd since I can get the beast to bonk out on every Mac I can get my hands on.
The bug is tickled by any script in the 8,000 to 10,000 line range. The test case is simple $x = 1; done 8041 times. The script crashes, and prints an error to the error logs. A no fail test would be to do $x = 1; about 10,000 times.
The crash will not hoop your system, and PHP will recover within two seconds.
The PHP maintainers, windows and unix users I have contacted in the last month have accomplished over 100,000 lines as expected, but no-one from the Mac community but me has been able to even give it a try.
I guess what I am looking for here is a sanity check, as I seem to be the only one who can make this thing happen... and that is 100% of the time.
Please give it a whirl and post back here what you have found. Then I can maybe get this thing fixed. If it crashes it would be great if you would also leave a comment and vote at the bug page mentioned above.
Thanks,
Mark.
