The problem you're having is not giving the right information. For instance, the buffer overrun errors would be an ideal thing to attach to your bug report. > Symbol table trashing bugs due to buffer management errors have plagued > PHP since the 4.0 days.

Write good bug reports. There is something of an art to it, especially for the harder to pin-down problems. I just glanced through your script, and the mere fact that you have to search for the bug shows that the test script is too large. The bottom line is that PHP is a free open source project, powered by volunteers; show some respect for our free time by taking the time to refine the report to the smallest possible test case. --Wez. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
