I'm little bit busy, i'll try to trace the root cause later this week.
As i wrote in the report, in the case that apache is running as single
process (using -X option) it works well, if it runs in preforked childs
mode, PHP fails until OCI_THREADED flag is set ...

Before making any changes I'd like to know why there are necessary.
As far as I know, OCI_THREADED is necessary only if you're using OCI in
threaded environment and is not necessary when you're using
Apache1/Apache2-prefork.
Could you plz give me more info about why Solaris requires this flag?
I'm sure it's Solaris-specific problem, as I do use OCI8 at Linux
without any problems for a long time.

We are running PHP-5.0.3 and Apache-1.3.31 on Solaris 9. There is

script which is using OCI extension is called. The backtrace is:

I have tried latest PHP snapshot too - with the same result.
I tried then run Apache in single-process mode (using -X option). This
time it was stable.
Thereafter i found in the code of OCI extension (ext/oci8/oci8.c) the
dependency of OCI library initialization flag OCI_THREADED on PHP ZTS
option -> ZTS is not enabled (nor recommended) by default, thus PHP
omits this flag during initialization.
I tried then to change the OCI extension code to use this flag by
default using the patch bellow - the problem was solved, apache in
multi-process mode didn't failed anymore on the PHP script.
Patch:

It seems that to allow to run PHP OCI extension in apache multi-process
mode it is required to initialize the OCI library with OCI_THREADED
flag, otherwise PHP may cause apache to crash.
There are several other unresolved bugreports in bugs.php.net database
related to this combination (solaris + apache + php-4.x/php-5.x) and
crash in _oci_close_session().
The default initialization with OCI_THREADED should not hurt any
functionality and it seems it solves the problem.
