Bug description: Recursive object creation causes segfault
Description:
------------
Sorry if this is a duplicate bug; the words __construct and segfault
appear thousands of times in this bug database.
If you try to construct an object of yourself in the constructor, the
infinite recursion causes a segfault. Ofcourse, you never want to
construct yourself like this, but then again, you never want to segfault
either.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
/*
* Tested on:
* PHP 5.1.4 (cli) (built: May 18 2006 09:50:08)
* Copyright (c) 1997-2006 The PHP Group
* Zend Engine v2.1.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2006 Zend Technologies
*/
class SegFault
{
public function __construct()
{
new SegFault();
}
}
$breakme = new SegFault();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
PHP Warning: something to the effect of infinite recursion
Actual result:
--------------
Segmentation fault
