Hi Andi,

I don't understand this patch. Doesn't this completely remove printing memory leaks? We never fixed this bug but as it was only relevant to the debug version and dl() we were OK with it... Of course there's also the option of not calling DL_UNLOAD().

Things got a bit crossed today :-\

This patch fixes a completely different bug that Dmitry came across on his travels.

Hi Stepth,

I reproduced crash of php-gtk on linix with php-zts.
I mean running "php -v" then php.ini contains "extension=gtk2.so".
The crash occurs only then php compiled with --enable-debug.

The reason of the crash is a bug in ZE that is activated by memory leaks in
php-gtk.
In case of "php -v" we don't do request startup/shutdown and as result we
don't handle memory leaks on request shutdown.
During tsrm_shutdown() shutdow_nmemory_manager() is called after
sapi_shutdown() and as result we cannot access sapi_globals then trying to
print information about memory leaks and crashes.

The solution - don't print information about memory leaks during
tsrm_shutdown().

Patch for PHP_5_2 is attached, but it can be manually applied to any
version.

Steph, does you crash(es) go away with this patch?

I am going to commit patch in 24h.
Any objections?

Thanks. Dmitry.
