But the good thing is that I had ported it to 5.4 and found the memory corruption bug. Here are my answers to your comments: On Mar 14, 2012, at 10:28 PM, Johannes Schlüter wrote: > A) for licensing reasons we should try to keep as few readline only things as > possible in there (gpl vs. php license) I understand the issue of licensing but the extension already has readline-specific functionality so I thought why not. However if this is going to be a problem then I can take out all readline-sepcific functions into a separate module altogether and keep this one for editline functions only. > B) thread safty isn't an issue for readline but you still should do the init > and deinit in rinit/rshutdown not minit/mshutdown, probably also do only > bind_key_functions =NULL in rinit and init the hashtable on demand later.

After I clear out which direction to take based on your answers.

Two points here: A) The new patch does not use this at all because it really isn't needed B) I got this from the same readline.c file lines 521 and 574 and 579.
