Well, reproduction script is *not*needed* as it's a PHP configuration
setting issue. It is visible for example in <? phpinfo(); ?> and I gave
exact *steps* to reproduce at the beginning.

Here they are, for convenience:

The goal is to disable the Zend Memory Manager.

Try #1:

1. set USE_ZEND_ALLOC in the environment (/etc/profile)
1a. also tried other ways, like setting it in the Apache config (SetEnv
etc)
2. Restart Apache to make sure change takes effect
3. View phpinfo page to see if Zend Memory Manager got disabled
3a. But this way works for the CLI version of PHP (setting env in
/etc/profile).

Try #2:
(proven to be futile and ineffective, but anyway)

I tried to recompile PHP with ./configure switches like
--disable-zend-memory-manager or --enable-malloc-mm (some webpages told
they will disable Zend MM), but as other developers said in this report,
there are no such compile options.

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc. If the script requires a 
database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates 
all necessary tables, stored procedures etc.

Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

So the bug I referred to was http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43397.
Curently it's marked as a duplicate of some other bug, which is now
closed because of lack of feedback. I tried to request reopening my
original bug, unfortunately without success.

About setting env var - please note that I tried this method. No go.
phpinfo shows that Zend Memory Manager is enabled. Note that I didn't
set it from command line, but had in environment (something like export
USE_ZEND_ALLOC=0; /usr/sbin/httpd ...). But it shouldn't make a
difference.

How about you tell us what the crash is you get? (what bug id was the
one you reported?) Also note that some crash bugs were fixed recently.
And there are no -disable-zend-memory-manager or --enable-malloc-mm
configure options. To disable the memory manager (for debugging) you
start e.g. apache with same way you do with PHP CLI:

# USE_ZEND_ALLOC=0 /usr/sbin/httpd <your options here>

Wait, I can test everything, but which method should I use (to disable
Zend Memory Manager)? The crashes occur even in 5.3-latest, so please
tell me what should I *exactly* do with this snapshot.
