Description:
------------
hi gang,

using the "session" extension was crashing apache here, making drupal
and other software unusable.  

With session.save_handler set to "user" in php.ini, I can
see that "save_path" arrives as 0x0 in "ps_open_user" in
mod_user, and apache crashes.

My fix for now is to hardcode this

        PS(save_path) = malloc(strlen("/tmp/") + 1);
        strcpy(PS(save_path), "/tmp/");

in session.c, and things work fine.  Unfortunately I have
no expertise to track this bug much more.

Cheers!



Reproduce code:
---------------
Use drupal..

Expected result:
----------------
Apache crashes, and your dmesg is full of 

[...]
pid 99709 (httpd), uid 80: exited on signal 11
[...]

Actual result:
--------------
Attaching httpd with gdb (session module compiled in debug
mode):

(gdb) 
(gdb) continue
Continuing.

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x2906b8bf in ps_open_user (mod_data=0xffffff00, save_path=0x0, 
    session_name=0x85b12ac "POSTNUKESID")
    at
/usr/ports/www/php4-session/work/php-4.3.10/ext/session/mod_user.c:95
95              SESS_ZVAL_STRING(save_path, args[0]);
